1. . Early aircraft have the ~anopy jettison contro~ ha!J,dle located_ 011
the cockpit floor and it was not possi~le for the pilot t«?. ~;each :the handle
without first releasing his hamess. This handle ~s repositic;_med in later
aircmtt (by D.B. Koclif'icaticm V.620) on the centre inst:nun8nt pane~, bo.t
the method ot operatioD was by a Bowden type wire which was liable to
inadvertent o:Peration and therefore unsatistacto z:y. This mod.iticatioD is
~. in two parts:-
)
' PART "A" re-locates the hydraulic selectors in aircraft whiCh have ·the handle

PART "B" re-locates the hydJ:a.ulic selector in the same W83' as Part "A", ba.t
also n-IOca.tea other equipaent as necessar.y and installs the handle within
reach of the pilot to give a .final installatioD identical to that achieved

(c) Sequence-·or Operations I

l
(i) {The following assumes that the two inne~ mounting
. assemblies are alreaczy- removed from the aircraft) •
Release and withdraw the seven bolts securing the
gun harmonization eccentrics to the casting and remove
the eccentric, retaining the nuts and bolts for
re-assemb:cy. Allow the tag washer to remain wired
to the gr.1b screw, leaving the grub sore* in position.

(ii) Clean off the jointing compound from both faces of the
casting and. the rear face of the eooentr;o.
t
(iii) Refer to DoH. Dra~~g A-12332, sheet 1, and position
the anchor nuts~ item l, in the three places indicated
-·--.,.... on the aft face of the forward flange of~the casting.
Ensure that ea·~h anchor nut is correctly .centralised
over its respective hole~ and shape the base plate of
the anchor nut to suit the casting radius, and i f
neoeasar.y~ this radius may be cleaned off slightly.
Using the anchor nuts as templates~ drill the attach-
ment holes i.wt the casting, using a Noo 4l, drill. ·
Counters~ these holes 90° to a diamete~ of Ool6 inah
on the f'·orward face of the flange. I
Notesg (a) On all lr!ko30 and :Mk:o3l uvamJire" aircraft
and spare castings S0037 and S0038, a
fourth anchor nut is out to ;suit and
positioned on the forward f~ce of the
rear flange in a. similar manner, as
shown on the drawing. When! modifying
the oastinga on Mka33 "Vampfre" aircraft,
also add this fourth anchor nut, j f it is

INSTRUMENTS -1' IliTRODUCTION
3eason for and Description of Modifica~ion
1. This modification ahthorizes the introduction of a

power failure warning light mounted on the blind-flying panel adjacent
to the gyro instruments to provide vi·s:llal indication of failure of
electrical supply to the G3 compass and. the artificial horizon.
Failure of these instruments due to a aefect in the power supply
circuit has been the cause of accident~s. A new compass junction box,
replacing the existing junction box situated on bulkhead No. e, has been
,·-"1;
:: ·:, introduced and incorporates the torqueli switch, fuse blocks, relays and
••
;."..
-~ associated wiring to operate same. Thlb new junction box is located on
the starboard side cockpit floor adjacl9nt to the. pilot 1 s seat. This
modification assumes that, where applifeable, D. H. Aust. Mods. V.102

H.P. FUEL COCK LEVER - REPOSITIONING
1. This modification authorizes the introduction of a

redesigned H.P. fuel cock lever causing it to be more accessible
to the operator. This enables the pilot, if he experiences a
flame out, to quickly shut off the high pressure supply and thus avoid
en~~e fl coding.
Application
2. This work is to be carried out on all Vampire Mk. 33
Aircraft, Serial Nos. A79-801 to A79-836.
...., Note:- Aircraft Serial No. A79-829 was modified during trial installation
·e----·· of Ejection Seats etc.
3. This modification is to be incorporated by operating units,

aircraft depots or civilian contractors responsible for servicing
Vampire Aircraft. The trade mustering responsible is airframe fitter.

R~ove the existing orown and washer
at ballast resistor end and external
covering on the leads. Replace removed
covering with 2 lengths of fibre glass
sleeving, :ltem 2.
Replace original crown and washer with new
ones as called for, item 3.
Important: The new sleeving running from
the ballast resistor to the carbon pile
must cover the wire as far as entry into
base of regulator. This may require
the temporary displacement of wire in
vicinity of exit to carbon pile •
. {v) Using wires supplied, item 5, cut 2 new
lengths of wire to replace the 2 wires
i1 removed (see para. (iii)). Remove
!
j covering on wires and replace with fibre
i glass sleeving item 2. Assemble crowns
" and washers to new lengths o~ wire.
(vi) Before reconnecting wires, check ohmic value
of ballast resistor using a Wheatstone
bridge or obmeter. If found to be 33 ohm,
remove from voltage regulator and replace
with ballast resistor 26 ohm, item 4.
(vii) Reconnect wires, ensuring that original
spring and plain washers have been replaced.
l
-l (viii) As the slide on the ballast resistor may
have been disturbed whilst new wiring is
incorporated, it may be necessary to reset
the slide.
The voltage regulator must therefore be tested
in accordance with A.P.4343B, Vol.1,
Section 1, Chapter 19.
After ensuring that the regulator is
adjusted to correct values, fit new fibre

Reason for and Descriptio n of Modificat ion
".~ 1. This modificat ion authorize s the introducti on
'· of a deeper fork end and shorter strut in the elevator
mechanism . Fouling between the fork end and lever has been
experienc ed with the elevator in the extreme up position
·resultin g in bending of the fork end. It is necessary
to shorten the strut because the deeper fork end will not
allow enough adjustmen t which, in turn, might cause the
elevator to droop excessive ly.
