In the absence of wings, perhaps several bunches of helium balloons? It's only lift you're after, you've got your thrust sorted 
(Extra points if the ballons have 'Happy Decanting Day Magos' on them)

Alas, no. This is the Vulture conversion kit, I found it (and some Punisher Cannons) on eBay for $40 total. I just happen to have a ton of leftover/scrap Valkyrie parts, and I THOUGHT I had a pair of wings...but I didn't. 
Also? I didn't notice I had hit 50 pages. Uh, cake for everyone!

Well to be fair you did celebrate page 50 by coming out as a drag-zombie, not many folks have done that yet!
Here's to another 50 pages of re-building and reclamation, plus more cake
So what did you do with the matching right wings

MORE ZOMBIE CAKE!
After I am finished with the Vulture, I'm going to be left with a bag of parts that, frankly, are not good enough to make another Valk out of. Sad, but true. Their destiny is terrain, because I DO have enough to build a crashed Valkyrie!

You'll have the two heavy bolter mounts, the tail pieces, whatever weapons the Vulture can't mount, the nose (minus cockpit interior unless you don't plan on modelling that), and whatever landing skids you choose not to use.

..So we'd need 1 fuselage, two wings, and the tail booms to make another flyer

NO! You'd need 1 fuselage, two wings and the tail booms to make another valk
Just a random flyer is a completey different thing - might not even need anything else

It doesn't have to be a valk, I'd gladly trade top engine speed for a ordinance package of 20 twin-linked autocannons

Just sayin', that's all.
You can get a flyer out of the cockpit and tail sections if you try - but don't think it would hold your planned load-out

Especially as I have, you know, an entire Fuselage lying around.
No tail booms to speak of.

Hey, look what *I* got!
I'd just like to say that the FLIGHT DECK is getting kinda FULL.
Popped the canopies, the cockpit interiors were installed on the Sky Talons, so I should be able to sand-and-lacquer recover the glass, and maintain my interior detailing streak.
So:
4 Valkyrie/Vendetta Airframes
1 Vulture Airframe
2 Skytalon Airframes
2 Arvus Lighter Airframes
