Cees,
As far as I know the main part of the rear fuselage on a Tempest is the same as the Typhoon (the Sea Fury differs only in the first coupls of 'Ribs'). The tail on the late Typhoons I believe is the same as the tail on the MKV and II tempests (the extra in front of the fin is just an add on to the Typhoon tail). I have thought of this one and I only know of 2 rear fuselages that are not incorporated in a complete aircraft.....one is caught up in a legal battle and has been stored outside for the last decade or so and the other is in Holland. If you know of any others or any of these that would be available.......let me know!!!!
