Vickers FB-24 Vampire
Is there any place on the web that has a good 3-view of this airplane? I got the itch to scratch!

There's a few photos around - one or two were posted in a thread about the RAF Ram but with the software change they got lost. I've never seen a 3-view, but that's the kind of thing Dan-San might be able to pull out of his hat.

I've got the above referenced pages, plus a 3/4 front photograph of the Hisso powered prototype. Looks like I picked a fun one to dig up.
