Shaun Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 (edited) Thanks for the link Merv. Those Tornado look very scruffy and I love the patchwork on 072, looks allmost like its an applyed camoflage scheme. We've got a long way to go before we get this digital camoflage right, we appear to trying it panel by panel.

Shaun Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 (edited) It has been reported that the new TERMA pod makes the Tornado produce a strange noise. The noise is generated by the airflow over the dispensor vents on the pod. Have a listen to this vid of a Tornado carrying the new pod. Cool Eh! Shaun.

smeds Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 Not dissimilar to the "bluenote" the Hunters used to make, though a little higher pitched. smeds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Tornado sounded like something out of Thunderbirds or Captain Scarlet. Lovely!! Graham Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedy Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 Well that put's the explanation to this some time ago: BM post - Tornado weird noise I was told they were also playing about with a fairing on the bottom of the rudder = noise. Steve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Gordon Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 (edited) G'day all, Thanks for the link Shaun,that sounds exactly like the blue note I heard from the pair of Tonkas over Old Woodhall on Thursday afternoon. Mystery solved. Old Woodhall is near Coningsby BTW,for the many that have never heard of it. Edited March 7, 2010 by Alex Gordon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These RAF boys don't seem to care that some of us have to build models of these things! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
