Homebee Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 One day and a half at RAF Coningsby on March 7th & 8th provided me the opportunity to see and shot no less than 24 Typhoons!

Paul J Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 The Typhoon is not one of my favorites and that applies to a number of other modern types. But, your photos are superb and have struck a chord with me and remind me of many happy adventures back in the 70's and early 80's when I used venture to bases in Suffolk, Norfolk and elsewhere taking pictures and number crunching. Happy days. I now almost have a hankering to start this again.... Paul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devilfish Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 Nice pics! Typhoons also not one of my favourites, but it's growing on me... I do miss the old Cold War days when the RAF's aircraft always flew armed to the teeth.....seems a waste to let them fly around with empty hardpoints...
