Yesterday we went to Coningsby where in the afternoon the based displays did their display. One Typhoon is painted in a superb colourscheme to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the Battle of Brittain, and will do synchro pair displays with a Spitfire this year. Yesterday was the first flight of this striking coloured Typhoon. The red tailed Tyhpoon is the solo display.

Forum rules
This is the forum to share your recent aviation photos with the rest of the community, being photos not older than six months at the moment of topic opening. Theme-based topics, not about recent events, should go into the sub-forum. Although we will not screen beforehand, we reserve the right to delete any images, especially if clearly unsharp or otherwise low in quality. For more information on how to upload you images, check this post. In topic titles, please use airfield names in stead of just codes, and be clear about what kind of photos your viewers can expect (e.g. CIV/MIL, location etc.). Finally, bring any photo criticism understandable and to the point, not cynical or offensive! Simultaneously, do not feel offended by criticism per se, but simply explain your motives, taste et cetera, or ignore if you wish so. |

I'm afraid these kinds of special paints are the only way to see Typhoons in attractive camouflage schemes.
