As non aircrew RAF I’ve had two trips in an F4 Phantom, the first was in Cyprus on detachment and we got airborne, gear up, then vertical, unlike this Typhoon takeoff, to 10,000 feet!! 228 OCU, S/L Andy Bateman was the pilot. That was AWESOME!!
I've seen typhoons go vertical using purely the thrust from the jets to keep them in the air and moving upward at RAF Conningsby. An amazing sight, so spectacular. That said the Spitfires have also done it on rare occasions from the same station.
I would love to experience that in a typhoon. The acceleration must be out of this world. So effortless and within seconds bang airborne and thousands of feet high
Acceleration only surpassed by a top fuel nitro methane dragster pulling 10Gwith 13,000 bhp. 0-350mph in 3.8seconds and you never leave the ground. Drivers black out for a couple of seconds during acceleration and again with equally harsh negative G when they pull the shoot to slow down after 400 yards. But have to agree the view is better from a typhoon
The RAF need forty new build Typhoons now with the Tranche 1 Typhoons upgraded not scrapped. Things are getting serious with Russia and Ukraine so scrapping Typhoons and the tiny size of the RAF is insane. Oh, and reopen the Hawk production line and order another 25 Hawk T2s with slatted wings and new all Rolls Royce made Adour engines minus the oops a daisy accidentally on purpose did we get it wrong French components.
Both are correct. The British mostly call it Typhoon. In Germany it’s always called Eurofighter, to a point where apart from experts nobody even knows it’s also called Typhoon.
My dad did something similar but with Concorde coming in behind him, both landing at Humberside Airport. Weirdly my grandfather was on the ground taking photos of Concorde but failed to recognise my dad's cesena trying to land at full speedin order to ensure Concorde didn't stall!
@@kevbrown2532 ATC would not have cleared Concorde to land if another aircraft was ahead on approach and had yet to land and clear the runway. If Concorde had reached the last point to call for landing and the Cessna still had not cleared the runway then ATC would have told Concorde to overshoot and go around.
@@juleshathaway3894 I can assure you ATC did give authorisation, heard it myself. They also gave instructions for my dad to pull off the runway at the first intersection,which he did.
I'm not sure when this was, at LAX you get 'clear to land' even though you're not the first aircraft on approach. Perhaps the practice has changed since then?

@@kevbrown2532 awesome!
Tx 4 all the comments. Im da pilot. Uset to be a bus driver but transfered to Typhoons after a refresher course. So wort it.❤
good job you dont have to spell to be a eurofighter pilot
Was there that day .. Quite an impressive take off , nicely captured
It certainly was impressive 😀
Not like a lightning though
The Typhoon would be at 10000 feet before the Lightning had it's wheels up.
Yes, the climbing rate of the Lightening was phenomenal!
@@dmanton300cough cough splutters cough.
And your point is ?
I can remember louchers crample Earth n body shake. So excited but was worried. If training or real. That time you did not know x

@@hazzard8760 interesting
That take-off. Wow.
It's impressive for sure!
Just think, that pilot actually gets paid to do that! ❤
The pilot sure does

It's called Typhoon. Eurofighter was its design and construction designation.
The official name is Eurofighter Typhoon, so I guess both is correct

@@rjonsen the comment was aimed at the original post.
WOW beautiful plane
Thank you 🙂
It sure is 🙂
Yes, but I'm sure there could be a prettier colour scheme! 😁
Venom 2-1
VFR departure
8000’
Unrestricted
🔥
so imagine the Messerschmitt 163 pilots: they experienced that almost 80 years ago!
Indeed
Well, Point taken, however lets be real, not quite, not even the F-86, the starfighter and lightning OK.
Amazing
Thank you 🙂
Do you think that front landing gear could be put on a mountain bike?
Don't think it's suitable for a mountain bike
Nice Rolf!!
Thank you! It was a good takeoff
Imagine lining up on the runway in a cesena 182...then you look in your rear view ...and see that behind

That would not happen. ATC would not clear two totally different aircraft types to line up on the same runway.

😆 proper showing off, and why not 👏👏👏
The spectators were happy for sure 👌
I can think of worst ways to earn a living LOL. that must be one hell of a rush 🙂
It sure must be 🙂
brits always have pirate mounted - i guess luftwaffe is a bit jealous.
What is a restricted climb?
One that complies with the attitude constraints of the departure procedure.
No Sqn markings?
Not on this one
No Squadron marks on any now. All done by central maintenance & pooled.
@@The-Sea-Dragon-1977 thanks for the clarification
@@rjonsen great video BTW.
Thanks for posting.
@@The-Sea-Dragon-1977 thank you 🙂
Can you say "excess power !" I ride a sport motorcycle with a 1:1 PW ratio.
For sure
Not a impressive as a Lightning, no the British one.
Never seen a Lighting sadly
@@rjonsen You should search for it, it's very impressive.
Will certainly do
And i cant drive my 25 years old car into London
You can if you pay.
Can your 25 year old car defend the country in a war situation? If not, why are you complaining
On its way to Ukraine, then? No! O' well! Maybe next time?
It was there for a detachment
Out of date no match for the Russian su 57. We are a joke in the air.
Easily matches the Su-57. Much better systems.
