2024 Typhoon Display Jet

[reaper493]

ZJ913 has just been pulled out of a HAS at Coningsby in the new paint scheme, it's done in the style of a 1944 D-Day Hawker Typhoon.

Green/grey camo, invasion stripes and a yellow leading edge.

Looks the business.

I'm sure there will be some official shots shortly.

Looks superb. Bravo!

[James Cutting]

Looks excellent, done a great job! Never saw the previous camo jet, so this is nice

Is ZJ914 being backup for the season?

[reaper493]

Yes I believe it is - should also be the final year for flying for 914 (although that has been said before!)

[James Cutting]

That's good, nice to see 2 schemed jets in circuit but I did think last year was to be the last year for it

[Vulcanone]

ZJ929 and ZJ939 have already been retired to Warton, along with ZJ937 which isn't yet retired.

[f-4]

Tranche 1 jets are due to be retired in March next year, that's everything through to ZJ943.

Tranche 1 jets are due to be retired in March next year, that's everything through to ZJ943.

What does this mean for the number of Squadrons?
This would mean some 30 aircraft less.

[Vulcanone]

Same number of Squadrons, but just less airframes on them per Sqn....

[f-4]

Fewer, Tim!

[drives20]

ZJ929 and ZJ939 have already been retired to Warton, along with ZJ937 which isn't yet retired.

Believe ZJ924 isn’t airworthy anymore as well

[f-4]

This is the current status of Tranche 1 jets I believe. Happy to be corrected.

Lovely scheme that.

[B58Hustler]

Not a lover of display/commemorative schemes, but that is gorgeous.
It will no doubt go tech when I visit Coningsby or the Loop.

[bigcrow]

Looks stunning, well done all involved.

ZJ913 (don't know how long that CDN link will work)
(edit: a similar picture now showing on the airshow news link given earlier, better quality here)

[TonyO]

Interesting they chose what appears to be one of the most infrequently seen single-seat T1 jets, hope it's not a hangar queen.
