From the view out of my office window, it looks like the three 41 squadron Typhoons will be heading back to Coningsby soon.

Unfortunately there were no photographers to capture your image in the 146. hope you had a pleasant flight home. However if you scroll down to current military photography you will find some superb images of the three Typhoons captured by Mickey S when they arrived at EGNO yesterday.

15.20 41 Sqd Typhoons Apollo 1 & 3 rotated dry from 25 followed at 15.30pm by the other 41 SQ Typhoon Apollo 2 again a dry rotation from R 25 RTB CBY.

Apollo called upon 339.250 and when air born switched to 341.775.

As the Typhoons were warming up a R.S.A.F. C 130 Hercules landed and is now parked up on cargo.

The flight I wanted photographing turned out to have added interest (apart from being my first flight in a 146), as a stand-in 146 was used - G-RAJJ from Cello Aviation. Amazing interior! (this exact aircraft carried the Queen on her state visit to Ireland in 2011)

At 17.20pm today Saturday 23rd, May, I was approaching Kirkham when I heard what I first thought was a Wokka, but it turned out to be Mr Connolly's Huey followed
closely by the Loach, both landed at Wesham.
