I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.

Saw a Typhoon doing mad shit over Ashton Court in Abbots Leigh this summer. The noise!!! There's just so much of it... everywhere! There's more noise than there is sky with which to contain it.
How can something so little be so effing noisy???

Is that out of Warton? In the third video it looks like it's really struggling to fly as slow as the Seneca (?) camera ship!

GF's cousin is some sort of tech in the RAF and has been up in a Tornado GR4 i think, and said it was the best experience of his life and knows nothing will ever come close.

I did have a ride in a Harrier T10 when I was in the RAF but not in a Typhoon. Also had a ride in an attack helicopter in canada but don't know what type it was.
I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.

I would give my right arm for a ride in an Apache Longbow.

Wasn't an apache. was like a huey with machine guns on it. we flew along a river with tall trees either side then went up and attacked an orange tank in a clearing. was pretty cool as we got to see brown bears and eagles in the forest.
