What Aaron Said. Plenty of images to be seen. Same for the SE5 Viper engine. If it's a particular detail you want help with I'm sure someone will help, but a general question you can work through using a search engine. This site also has a search function.

I don`t need Viper or pilot images, I have loads of photos. My problem is mixing colours, skin etc. As for SE5a its airframe dimensions I need.I have the Viper engine manual with engine fitment dimensions. I have emailed Shuttleworth to see if they can help.

Thanks, but, not quite that basic.

That`s a model, looking for real ones. Two basic dimensions I need from the full size aircraft are length of fuel tank (2ft ?) and thrust line relative to datum (8in. ?).

Is that the vintage aviator ltd? IIRC they used a set of drawings by Jim Kiger and some RAF drawings.

Already looked at them . £100 plus, can`t justify that.

All I really need is a Viper engined side view with dimensions.

Not much joy there! Won`t sell/supply copies of drawings etc.
