Hi all, I have a couple of projects on the go which will have a side-by-side cockpit. One is a Sea Vixen, which should be fairly simple to knock up and a Thunderchief with a scratchbuilt forward fuse.

The downside is I have no canopies for these so I thought I'd ask if anyone has any spares here.

Anybody have a spare 1/72 Jet Provost or A-6 canopy or anything similar?

For your Thunderchief conversion you might want to look for one of these, the TF-102 was a side-by-side trainer.

And Aeroclub do a Lightning T.4/5 conversion where if you write to them you could probably get just the canopy from it.

The TF-102 was the inspiration for the 'Tub Thud'. I figured what's good for the goose is good for the gander.

Thanks for the links. I might have to see what else could get the 'Tub' treatment  ;D
