Tea-time Typhoon bagged

A very slow day at Cad West today (10th Sept 2008) a slow hard slog up a muddy and very slippery path, a very long wait for any aircraft with the first Hawk pair through at 13:40, and then another pair of Hawks about at 16:00.
The slow and very windy day was brightened by the company on the hill, Lozza, Garry, PeteB, and a Belgian Von-smallhousen, et all; thanks guys it was a good laugh.
Eventually a real smile appeared on several faces when the Boscombe Tucano popped out of Bwlch and headed our way, but it was the crew of "Bravo Kilo" the boy's in the Typhoon that really made the day special and I'd like to thank them for a very memorable and noisy show (didn't sound like my 'Dyson' this time), truly awesome! we all suffered a touch of "excitement tourette's" after that last pass and climbout!
The guys that left early will be gutted to see what they missed....

Hi,

I am currently doing a piece of work for a aviation company called Inzpire who have seen the following image on Flickr and love it!"Eurofighter Typhoon T1, ZJ812, BK, 29 Squadron." What they were wondering was if there would be any possibility of getting the rights to this image for use on a banner we are producing for them. If this is something that interests you could you pherhaps contact me at robert.smith@kimeera.com or on 0845 230 6057.
