ONE OF THE BEST RAF TYPHOON DISPLAY PILOTS OF ALL TIME • SPECTACULAR PRACTICE AT RAF CONINGSBY 18.04

- Flight Lieutenant David "Turbo" Turnbull is this year's RAF Typhoon Display pilot and he has already produced a particular sequence that will wow the crowds. The slow aileron roll into the max alpha is a signature manoeuvre from Turbo! He is becoming one of the best Typhoon display pilots of all time. With a hard deck of 100ft, let's ride!
We normally expect to hear callsign ANARCHY1 when it comes to the RAF Typhoon display pilot, however, this year, the display pilot's callsign is "TURBO"! Our display pilots nickname is 'Turbo' but is it not Anarchy1? We knew that this year was going to be different and TURBO is the new callsign for the display pilot, which has been borrowed from Lossiemouth's 6 Squadron.
This year's 2024 Typhoon Display Pilot, David "TURBO" Turnbull will be doing his first set of 10 practice displays at 1,500ft and then will lower it to 500ft hard deck before being allowed to smack it right down to 100ft. Once you hear callsign TURBO1, there will be excitement. However, Turbo will also be carrying out practice displays around the country, this is to prepare him and get used to performing displays away from the home base, which is what airshow season is all about. Before Turbo will be allowed to display at airshows, he will need to achieve and obtain his PDA (Public Display Authority). Without this insurance, he will not be able to display at airshows and venues. The other responsibility is once a pilot obtains a PDA, they cannot go more than 10 days with some sort of display, whether practice or real world at air shows. Failing this would result in having to re-apply for a PDA.
The Typhoon Display Team work-up begins with the selection of the Display Pilot, usually in Oct/Nov of the preceding season. The selection is conducted by the Officer Commanding (OC) 29 Squadron, Station Commander (Stn Cdr) RAF Coningsby and the Combat Air Force Commander (CA FC) with the final decision being made by Air Officer Commanding (AOC) No 1 Group (1 Gp). The selection is based on previous experience and ability as a Typhoon Pilot. Currently the Display Pilot is selected from the Qualified Pilot Instructors serving on 29 Squadron, the Typhoon Operational Conversion Unit (OCU).
Once selected the new Display Pilot shadows his predecessor for the end of the season and has the opportunity to fly in display practices flown at RAF Coningsby for currency. During this time the Display Pilot is tasked with designing their display sequence. The sequence is usually made up of previously approved aerobatic manoeuvres that can be flown in Typhoon. New manoeuvres require AOC 1 Gp to approve them. The Display Pilot must design not only a Full Display but also a Limited and Flat sequence used in the event of poorer weather.
During sequence development the Typhoon simulators are used to check the sequence before the airborne work-up is started. The simulator is also used throughout the work-up to prepare the Display Pilot for bad weather (including strong winds) and to practice aircraft handling in the unlikely event of an emergency during a display to ensure complete safety for the crowd.
The work-up continues progressively stepping down base heights from 1500ft to 500ft. A predefined number of practises at each height is to be achieved. At the final display height of 500ft, level turns and flypasts can also be conducted at 300ft and 100ft respectively.
The end of the work-up is the awarding of the Public Display Authority (PDA). AOC 1 Gp personally visits RAF Coningsby watches the display, reviews the work-up and if content grants the Display Pilot PDA, meaning they can then demonstrate the outstanding performance of Typhoon in front of crowds of hundreds of thousands of people during the summer display season.

Oii Oii ladies, gents and teddy bears! What do you think of Turbo’s display? Isn’t he just sensational? Let us know in the comments your thoughts. Please support the channel by clicking the LIKE button and subscribing to the one and only Ted Coningsby channel oohhh yeah
Great
He's incredible!!
As Tina Turner sang Simply The Best
Really awesome 👏
I grew up on RAF bases, my Dad led a flight for the Silver Jubilee and his best Friend was Head of the Red Arrows and I worked with some of the Typhoon development team and have the baseball cap and I've never seen a display like that, awesome turbo, definitely going "ballistic"
I used to play poker with Dave many years ago. I’m so immensely proud of him! What a fantastic achievement and he really is a top lad!
Superb display,
Magnificent, mesmerising and magic! Watch out World! Turbo's about! Goodness me, Flt Lt Turnbull, thank you, your displays are absolutely incredible! Max Alpha manoeuvre, tremendous - my favourite, Blackjack suspended in mid-air almost 😲. Wonderful. ❤️
Oii oiii Margo 🤙🏼 Turbo has just produced a manoeuvre that you can now recognise the pilot. Take several different display pilots and you can now work out who is Turbo from the “Leaping Salmon” manoeuvre. That’s a great thing to achieve. Nikos was told in the days of doing his photography, try to find a style where someone can actually work out who the photographer was just by looking at a photo. Incredibly difficult but not impossible. Turbo has just done that, his own signature move. Oooohhhhhh yeah
Phenomenal! What a plane.
Ooohhh yeah
Totally awesome. Thanks for letting us see this content. So proud of that pilot👍👏😀
Oii oiii thanks Richard
That was amazing, thank you Dave & Ted!
He certainly packs a lot into that 10 minutes! Spectacular turns and rolls, and doesn't let up! I used to love Brightys finish, when he pointed Blackjack skyward and disappeared, straight up - like the addition of the spin Turbo! Nikos on point with the filming too.
Oiii oiii Ellesee thank you so much ooohhhh yeah
awesome, great camera work Nikos
Oii Oii thanks John
Outstanding display, spectacular flying skills and a wave to Ted at the end when Turbo returned. Incredible performance by the cameraman too. Legend 🫡 Thank you for another fantastic stream today - even more highlights of the year. Top work there Nikos

Thanks Colin. He is becoming one of the best RAF Typhoon display pilots
Super Turbo!
What a great routine - high energy, some great manoeuvres with such smooth transitions. Aerial choreography at its finest. Fantastic! ❤🎉
But hats off to you Nikos - excellent filming!
And a special mention to Drew & his gang for keeping Blackjack well serviced!
Thank you so much. Nikos is getting better and better. Really appreciate the comments
Sensational - that's the word. Unbelievable manoeuvres, the only thing not possible is to reverse!!
Quite emotional to think that in this world today, we have these pilots of incredible skill capable of keeping us all safe.
Only hope to strike lucky and be at Coninsby to see Blackjack one day. Thanks Nikos and Ted for perfect filming, AND a wave at the end, phew, swoon!
Oii Oii, now that was what I call flying by the seat of your pants! Turbo is in my opinion best RAF Solo Display Pilot ever!!

With grace, poise and power Turbo paints his signature across the skies of Lincolnshire. The scars are still there if you look 😉🫡, It's etched in my mind now. Control and involving. We were right there with him. Not one but TWO Quotes of the day ala Nikos speak 'That gave everyone a hugh facelift' into 'We are all smiles here 😊' 😂Yes Turbo. Smaaassshhedd Itttt! ❤
Oii oiii Dan, Nikos is really coming out with them this year lol. Oohh yeah
