Coningsby 30th Apr - D-Day Typhoon display
completely unexpected, for the D-day Typhoon to be used & the gorgeous afternoon weather. Not many of us there, so thought I'd post some of my pics.

Captain Scarlet is indestructable, you are not! Remember this, do not try to imitate him.

Hi Viv,
Some cracking shots and angles there, think you must have captured every angle possible.
I like your pics a lot
Got to say I really like what they have done with the markings on this Airframe
All the best

Thanks much all - was really chuffed with these
Craig, I love it !! Yes, it's heavy, & feeling it today after Abingdon yesterday. But the stabiliser really does it's job & well. Only decision is 300 or 400........

Cracking set and what an envious decision you have to make. 300mm + 1.4 x convertor for me
