GUNSIGHT MOUNTING, RETRACTABLE - MODIFICATION TO ELECTRICAL


WmiNG FOR VAMPIRE TRAINER AmCRAFr

Reason for and Description of Modification

1.. This modification introduces a rework to the Retractable Gunsight


Mounting to re-route and/or change the existing screened cables and add a
Breeze type socket to the end of such cables so that tnis socket will then mate
with a Breeze type plug located on the aircraft adjacent to the Retractable
Gunsight Mounting thus allowing the remainder of the gunsight wiring to be
·!J ~ left intact upon removal of the Mounting. In conjunction with the above
changes, the GGS electrical supply plug mounting bracket is positioned on the

-
. alternative holes provided to suit either left-hand or right-hand installation.

Note.: This modification is divided into two parts as followa1-


i Part 1·- Detailing the alterations necessar,r to

the rubber sealing ring and secure it in position with
Bostik 1410 (item 6), ensuring that it lies central about
the flller locating block, but distort it slightly in
order to clear the grounding socket.

(b) To maintain filler neck concentricity, the tank bearer


blocks at the top of bulkhead No 3, and on the fireproof
bulkhead, may be adjusted by adding to, or relieving the
rubber packingso ~hen adding use item 8 as required and
secure with Boscoprene 2413 Parts 1 and 2 (item 7), applied
to the bearing surfaces.

(c) The filler neck orifice in the fuselage shell may be


slightly relieved ln order to achieve a snug fit of the
locating spigots, and if relieved, the bared surfaces ("'\.

PACITOR FUEL GAUGE INSTALLATION -


RE-ROUTING OF CO-AXIAL CABLES & REPOSITIONING OF
C01!PONENTS
Introductio n

lo This modificatio n introduces conduits in the wings to allow


replacement of defective Pacitor wing tank cables without the removal of the
fuel tanks and also moves the junction boxes from the No 1 fuel tank bays
to ~h~ rear of the wheel wells to facilitate in situ serviceabil ity teste of
all the Pacitor wing tank cableso The Pacitor rectifier unit is also re-
located in the gun-bay so that as many as possible of the existing tank
cables can still be usedo In addition to the above, the straight co-axial
socket at the rectifier end of the cable leading to rib No 1 starboard is
replaced with a right angle co-axial socket to alleviate undesirable stresses
on the cable due to its rest~icted overall lengtho

2. The classificati on is based on improved maintenance aspectso

3. This modificatio n consists of three parts:-

VAMPIRE MODIFICATION NO 340


Class 3
i
.j
i TR 1936 RADIO - TO BE-ROUTE THE AERIAL
LEAD-IN IN THE ENGINE BAY

Reason for and Descripti on of Modificat ion

1. Due to the length of the VHF aerial connector s in the engine bay, the
·:· cables run in close proximi~y to the engine and are being subjected to higher
temperatu res than the cable is able to withstand , resulting in defects which
necessita te its replaceme nt.

This modif~cation shortens the aerial connector from the wing in the
engine bay adjacent to rib No 1 port, thus obviating the excess cable length,
and also specifies how the modified cables are to be installed •
.·.~i }~
i~ Applicat~on

le 2. This modificat ion is applicabl e to all Mk 35A aircraft and to Mk 35


aircraft A79-600 to A79-650 inclusive . Mk 35 aircraft A79-651 and sub~equent
will have the modificat ion embodied during manufactu re.

HYDRAULIC RELIEF VALVE - INTRODUCTION

Introductio n

1. This modificatio n introduces a hydraulic pressure rel:ase valve


which releases all hydraulic pressure in the aircraft (ie Brake and General
Services).

At daily serv~c~ng it is necessary to exhaust the brake system


press.ure to check accumulator pressure, to save time this is accomplishe d by
operating the foot motors or parking lever until all pressure is exhausted.
This method as well as being cumbersome, causes unnecessary wear of knife
edges on the Mk 3 control valve operating linkage.

Application

2. All Vampire Mk 35 and 35A aircraft (except A79/661 which was


modified as a trial installation ).

·f
Man-Hours and Trade Musterings Involved

(k) Disconnect all tank unit ends by removing the three 2BA
stiffnuts on each.

(1) Find connectors mounted between the junction box in each


wheel well and No 1 and 3 fuel tanks port and starboard
and after removing cable ties and whipping cut off the
junction box end fittings, to ~eave approximately two
inches of cable on each fittingo

(m) Obtain cord (item 8) four lengths approximately twelve


feet long and attach each to the cut ends of the
connectors.

(n) Working from the tank unit ends proceed to withdraw each
connector making sure that the cord draw string is
pulled through also.

(o) On Mk 35 aircraft only, remove the relevant hand hole


cover plates (inboard plates on outer tank doors and
forward plates on the inner tank doors) from the
underside of the tank doors and remove the four screws
which secure each clamp ring to the tank doors.

(p) Obtain new connectors items 5 and 6, 2 off each for No


3 and No 1 tanks respectively and at each tank unit hole
tie each draw string to the respective connector (bare
end) and after liberally coating a few feet of the
co-axial cable with grease (item 10) proceed to draw the
cables through towards the junction boxes in the wheel
well.


Note: Extreme care is to be taken when doing this as
the cable ends may get damaged due to the sharp
bends. This will be a two-man operation as it
will be necessary for one to get a hand between
the tank and the tank door through the hand hole
to ensure that the connector lays properly
between the guide strips on the tank door 9 whilst
the other is pulling the connector through from
the wheel well.

(q) On Mk 35 aircraft, which have bag tanks, ensure that all


tank fasteners are engaged on the tank doors after which
replace the clamp rings and cover plates at the hand
holes in the tank doors in accordance with the correct
procedure as laid down in AAP 721~79, Volume 1, Section
4, Chapter 2, paragraph 16.

(r) Reconnect the tank unit connector fitting at each tank


unit.

(s) Untie the drawstrings from the ends of the connectors,


bare back each end as shown on Drawing A14811 (HDH
Drawing OOM379 sheet 1 attached) and attach the fittings
as supplied with each connector.

Note: Do not cut back any of the conductor as the


connector has been manufactured to the correct
capacitance value allowing for the additional
fitting to be solderea on in situo However in
the case where a bared end has been damaged a e

small length (no more than 1.5") of conductor
could be trimmed off without greatly upsetting
the capacitance tolerance of the connector as
they have been out nearer the top tolerance for
this reason. When soldering the fittings to the
co-axial cables care must be taken to prevent
excess heat being applied to the polythene
insulation of the oableo After finalising the
end fittings, connect the~ to the junction box
in each wheel well.

Excess length of cable on tank No 1 connector is


to be stowed in the same manner as previously
done with the replaced conneotoro

(t) Locate the existing connector routed between the wheel


well junction box and the engine bay in each wing and
after undoing all ties and whipping, working from the
engine bay, pull the connector through until the


disconnect in this line is visible.

(u) Disconnect at this point retaining the straight connector


for re-use and then working from the wheel well pull the
cable completely away from the aircraft.

(v) Obtain new connector item 2, 2 off (1 port, 1 starboard)


and working from the wheel well again, fit the new cable
inside the conduit on both wings and leave this cable
disconnected.

AAP 721:79 VOL 2 PART 2 VAMPIRE MODIFICATION NO 381


Class: 2

RUDDER PEDALS - INTRODUCTION OF TIE BARS,


,-. WIPERS AND STRENGTHENED SPRINGS

Introduction

1. (a) The Reason for the Modification


Several instances have occurred where the rudder pedal has
twisted and become jammed with the resultant application of
brake whilst the pilot is applying full rudder.

The existing design of the rudder pedal assembly is such

• ~
that the leg length adjustment mechanism can be inadvertently
operated during application of full rudder and brake •

This modification will prevent the pedals twisting sideways


and jamming the brakes on, while the stronger springs will
make inadvertent operation of the leg length adjustment
less likely. '

(b) Description and Features by which the Modification can be


Recognised

The centre tie bar CF15-649A (see Sheet 1 of the drawing)


is visible from inside the cockpit when the rudder pedals
are adjusted fully forward.

The strengthened springs are visible behind the rudder


pedal with the aid of a mirror and may be recognised by
the OD which is • 52" (old spring OD =- • 39").
The forward tie bar CF15-651A (see Sheet 1 of the dra~ing)
is visible by the use of a mirror •

• (c)
The wiper washer CF15-655 and the packing block CF15-625
(see Sheet 2 of the drawing) are both visible from inside
the cockpit.

Relationship with Other Modifications

Vampire Modification No 329 must be incorporated prior to


or concurrently with this modification •
. ....,
....

(d) Reason for Classification

Several instances have occurred to date where the rudder


pedal has twisted and become jammed with the resultant
application of the brakes.

AUXILIARY FUEL PRESSURISATION SYSTEM


INTRODUCTION OF SEALED BLANKING CAP

Introduction

1• (a) The Reason for the Modification

In aircraft not fitted with drop tanks, the drop


tank air pressure line in the wing is not
completely blanked off, air being allowed to
escape through a 1/16" diameter bleed hole in the
.,
l
blanking cap. This allows continuous operation of
·1 the pressure reducing valve, and has been found in

e practice to cause excessive wear. This modification


will prevent operation of the pressure reducing
valve whenever the dr~p tanks are not fitted.
(b) Description and Features by which the Modification
can be Recognised

~. The two existing blanking nuts, Part No P00884


which are fitted, one underneath each wing, are
replaced by two new blanking nuts, Part No P15-619.
The new nuts have no vent holes and the hex head
is now flat in lieu of spherical.
(c) Relationship with other Modifications

Vampire Modification No 116 (Hawker de Havilland


Mod No V171) must be incorporated prior to or
concurrently with t~is modification.


(d) Reason of Classification

To obviate wear on pressure reducing valve.

(e) Effect on Servicing and/or Ground Handling

Nil.

(f) Effect on Aircraft Limitation

MAIN UNDERCARRIAGE - TO INTRODUCE FLEXIBLE


CONDUIT IN THE DOOR LOCK MECHANISM

Introduction

1. (a) The Reason for the Modificatio n

There have been numerous defect reports on the failure of


existing teleflex cable, and part of the reason for these
failures is thought to be that the existing solid teleflex
conduits are partially preventing the teleflex wrap box
.
---~ ...
from moving fore and aft with the radius rod •

(b) Description and Features by which the.Modific ation

• can be Recognised

This modificatio n introduces a short section of flexible


outer conduit for the teleflex cable from the inboard side
of the wheel well to the radius rod.
(c) Relationshi p with other Modificatio ns

It is necessary to obtain access inside the compartment


behind the rear undercarriag e diaphragm.

This can be achieved by any one of the following three


methods, whichever is most convenient: -
(i) Incorporatio n of Vampire Modificatio n No 384 -
"Introductio n of Access Hole on Lower Surface of
Mainplanes, to Provide Access to Rear Undercarria ge
Pick-Up Bolts.


(ii) Removal of both undercarriag e legs complete with
hydraulic lines.
(iii) Removal of both wing tanks No 1 with associated
tank screens.

It is recommended that the following modificatio ns are


embodied concurrently with this order.

Mod 396 - Main Undercarriag e Radius Rod Assembly -


Introductio n of an Improved Type Bearing Bush.•
Mod 392~ Main Undercarriag e Radius Rod- Introduction
of an Additional Grease Nipple.
