29Sqn Typhoon night shoot @ Bournemouth

Post by bizfreeq » Sun Sep 08, 2013 7:52 pm

Hi All
From the 22nd August through to the 2nd September,the company I work for at Bournemouth Airport hosted the Typhoon Display Team for their shows at Dawlish and Dunsfold through to Bournemouth and Shoreham. On the middle Tuesday one was due to depart back to CBY whilst the one remaining was to be hangared until the Friday of the local show,when the former was to return.With that in mind,I arranged to shoot the pair on the Sunday evening/night as the forecast was very favourable with no wind and clear skies.
I must thank Rob,Jamie and all the guys for putting up with me running around them with a camera for days on end,and for the positioning of the aircraft...cheers guys!
Here are the results of the night shoot feel free to comment,good or bad:

I have put them in this section as they aren't at a show or in any public display,but Mods feel free to move them if you wish.
Cheers
Mark

Cheers John.

The last one Mark, to see the business end at rest, and knowing what it can do when asked,
puts into perspective, the lion and the pussy cat.

Superb post.

Regards,
John
