Cabin section of the Vampire I. The rest of the aircraft is stored against the wall of the reserve hangar. This Vampire I was manufactured in the United Kingdom by the English Electric Company Limited in 1945, and was brought to Canada for cold weather trials. It served with the RCAF before being relocated to the Ontario Science Centre in Toronto. It is the RCAF's only Vampire I and the second-oldest Vampire in the world. The aircraft was transferred to the Museum in 1968. This photo is copyright © WalAndPl, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
