Photo Comment

This FB.6 was built under licence in 1960 by the Swiss Federal Aircraft Factory and was one of the last Vampires ever built. It was acquired by the Canadian Warbird Heritage Museum from the Swiss Air Force after the fleet was retired in 1995 and is displayed in the markings of a Mk. 3 that flew with RCAF No. 400, City of Toronto (Auxiliary) Squadron based at Downsview in the 1950s.
