Ahhhh, nice to see 29 Sqn back... Grin

Shows I gave you completely spurious info the other day Craig (Having said that the little Typhoon on the RAF display dates page was in 17 Sqn colours!)...

Considering the poor lighting those came out nicely Craig Wink

There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!

Do they put a Roman Numeral after aircraft named after an older one? They do here.

i.e., (P-47) A-10 Thunderbolt II, (F4U) A-7E Corsair II, etc..

No. A proper Typhoon has a more heavily framed canopey with a car door style hatch.

No, the teardrop hood four bladed prop version was the definitive Typhoon. Granted this only has a three blade. What ever it’s still more of a real aeroplane than that daft jet thing. Wink

Yeah but by then it might as well just be a Tempest. Tongue

I prefer the retro feel of the car door canopy. Grin
