Awesome respect for this Pilot, he does not look old enough to buy a drink in a pub let alone fly one of these magnificent aircraft!
You're probably getting old. 😁
Congratulations And Good Luck For The 2024 Typhoon Display Season Turbo
The Typhoon is a gorgeous aircraft and will always be a personal favourite planes! So proud of this guy!
Well done , I am looking forward to photographing you at RAF Coningsby doing your flying, like many others will be too , Thank you Turbo.
😅😅 2:05 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
Was at Coningsby last Wednesday was rather active cause if the night flying got some amazing shots
I'm an American and I wish our country had the Eurofighter! Would kill to fly it for a career
Sweet Job!!! Now that Would be Fun!!!. He must be the most Technical pilot in the RAF. Bravo!
Congratulations Sir,looking forward to seeing your display, stay safe.
Turbo and Moggy are going to make a great combination! That new WW2 Typhoon camouflage scheme with the D-Day invasion stripes looks awesome!
Good luck David. Looking forward to seeing you.🇬🇧
Very best wishes Turbo, sir. Go get 'em & show them exactly, what the Typh can do. Cheers, M.
So good to see a ringer get to the top.. Gives such a boost to RIngers all over the world.. No red flags with this chap. Plane looks pretty good as well.
Go Turbo !
So proud of you David!! 😍😍
Well done ! Much respect
Good luck to fly this to the max!!
Congratulations
In Forces News We Trust
Good luck for the season, and stay safe
I'm excited to see vids. The viper Belgium solo f16 pilot is prolly the best I've seen taking the jet to it limits , can only imagine what the euro can do!
...Best of luck 'Turbo'...May I suggest the legendary 'Imellman' manoeuvre on takeoff?..given as you said that you are working on new manoeuvres?
Good luck Turbo. Look forward to seeing you this season. I believe "Black Jack" was due to retire? Hopefully they will give your plane a good paint scheme ... anything but grey😉
Turbo is right, I wanted that gig. Dam !
Young man’s game for sure.
Congrats!
Going to see you this summer in Fairford during RIAT, mate. Looking forward to it!
You are the best
Good video 😮😮
Wow crowds with the size and proximity of the fireball
Think we should get the Battle Of Britain colours back on the phoon for displays. Look forward to seeing you this year. Bring the noise!!!!
Really should consider is paint job, they are starting to looked rough.
Darker grey or the og RAF cammo
Brilliant.. typhoon pilots
What a job 😊😊the skies are the limit
How about a new spray job on your whip ?? Any news ?? Can’t copy brightys surely ❤️ good luck turbo we will be watching
So if this chap flies round london, can i assume this jet is ulez compliant?
turbo what sort of gs are u pulling during the displays at coningsby
Why is there a smoke trail behind the craft?
“With the years I have slowed down”!!!😳😳😳…, he looks 12
Who knew! Ginger's can do stuff
nice shirt
Last decent RAF Typhoon Display I saw was RIAT 2012, since back then at almost all UK airshows, all the fast jets are so far away you need a 500-600mm lens to even half fill the frame for photos.
Seaside shows are even worse, the CAA are pushing aircraft so far out from the crowd, it makes the entire endevour a complete waste of time.
This all goes back to the massive over reaction by the CAA to what happened at Shoreham. yes it was an horrific accident, but it was nothing to do with the display line.
Andy Hill, the pilot got it all horribly wrong, also I believe that the road should not have been open during the airshow, and the organisers had not done their jobs.
Deepest condolences for your loss 😢Typhoon Display Team. Sgt US Air Force’s 919th Special Operations Group Air Commandoes 🫡🇺🇸Defensor fortis Semper Supra God & Country
Does his mum know he is out?
That's a sign that you're getting old :)
No one can touch Russia acrobatics. "Flat spin, pugachev cobra, stall spin etc" lol. Better hope Tempest will have 3D thrust vectoring.
They are pretty good with pyrotechnics too during the display
I am pleased that Russia has denounced the Treaty on fishing in the Barents Sea to the enemies. For 68 years, the British plundered this part of the sea, catching about 560 tons of fish a year. This is over, enemies cannot be allowed to hunt in our seas!!!
The Eurofighter is possibly the best fighter aircraft on the planet. There are a lot of arguments for the F-22, but the subsonic maneuvering of the Eurofighter makes it an excellent short range fighter.
👍🙌👏👏
Turbo? 🫣
Great pilot but his aircraft needs upgrading-over 20 years old now.
Isn’t he “too white” to be on display for the RAF, or does he tick a box because he’s ginger?
I am sure if there was someone half qualified and a shade darker or female then they'd have chosen them instead.
😂 exactly what I was thinking
Is he 4ft nothing?
Shorter Pilots make better fighter pilots, fact, height helps them sustain higher G's :)
They let Gingers fly?
Your thinking of the wee smell?
Ha ha ha ha ha
Hes actually white 😮
🤣🤣 mecanical antenna aren't used into any modern fighter's airforce for 15 years around the world, nice try lol
If you want to have even a small taste of what negative g' s feel like look out to Belgium.
Way too newbie!.
Good luck Red have a good crack (sorry its betterthan turbo)
The RAF….one aircraft only…..flown by Eddie Izzard limp wrists….
Hope it’s worth seeing, last years display was so boring, the french in their rafale put us deep into shame.
What boxes does he tick? I think there’s been a mistake they asked for Transgender but got Transginger.
Typhoons great n all, but bit samey now kinda boring, test some thrust vectors on a couple lol
Make me laugh.
In what way ?
Delta wing planes are supposed cheaper and easier to build than retractable wings planes. Already looks outdated, up against its counterparts, I don’t think it will do well. But most importantly our pilots have no battle experience. Flying exhibitions isn’t fighting experience..
Retractable wings planes, what are you on about. The typhoon can hold its own against anything.
@@anglonig1ignore him mate. Clearly clueless
The retractable wing aircraft were better because their wings could retract? You what now?
The Typhoon has evolved over many years into an exceptional multi role platform. With the AESA radar upgrades coming it'll be a match for anything else in the skies. In BVR matched with the Meteor, it's certainly not a platform to go up against. In a pure dogfight it's thrust to weight ratio and performance matches that of most fighters in the sky, even holding its own against the F22 at red flag. But I forgot, it's wings don't retract, silly me, that makes it bad.
Ah well then.
Tyhoon is the best fighter in the world and the only aircraft in the world to consistently manoeuvre at 7G 👍🏻🇬🇧
Turb0 is ginger.
