Re: Stored Typhoon T.3's
So do you want 150 "sorry can't help" posts? I read many posts just out of interest and maybe others do too. OK out of 150 you could possibly expect an answer or two but I'm fairly sure you haven't been deliberately ignored. Most people help where and when they can.

Re: Stored Typhoon T.3's
If they're stored, it seems to me that they have been put away somewhere, and not on parade for your camera.
Re: Stored Typhoon T.3's
A look at Milky's site says that they (or what is left of them) are behind the engine hush house - wherever that is.

Thanks for the message, it was infact Milky's site that drew my attention to them and I emailed him directly but sadly his reply came after I'd departed Coningsby today.
Maybe I should have asked "Where's the Engine Hush House"
Cheers

And for reference, this was taken during last week:

Re: Stored Typhoon T.3's
Not a problem at all ...
And certainly no need to apologise, especially as you didn't know the answer.
All is now clear and the question very clearly answered

Re: Stored Typhoon T.3's
Stored being a loose reference... Dumped awaiting collection for a trip to the crusher sums it up. ;-)

You mean those two aircraft weren't on QRA duty when I took the photo?
