Chase plane Sabre

Does or can anyone help with the camera configuration  and position in nose where the guns were, for the Boeing operated Canadair Sabre. Would like diagrams images to help in a slow going build.

Boeing operated two, a yellow one and a white one.  which one are you doing and do you have the Vingtor decals??

 

Cheers, Tony

Do these help?

Note if the serial number is original this is a Sabre5,looks like it has been fitted with the later wing.

that is their later Sabre 5 1/2,  that wore the white with red/black trim.    Yes , it is a Sabre 5 with a Sabre 6 wing.

Thanks for help so far.  The decals I have are the JBOT set for the white with red trim scheme.(It also included the yellow one but passed them on to someone else) Not sure if the Vingtor ones are still available and didn't know about them. Had the JBOT ones for a while now so thought its about time to use them on a cheap buy of the Heller kit in Airfix box. I know there are issues with the kit but not too bothered. But it does have the main canopy missing however luckily I do have a spare one from the Hasegawa kit I found in my transparency spares that can be adapted to fit.

Looks like a 6-3 wings with slats- is that correct, Tony?
