Eurofighter Typhoon D-Day Salute

Great camerawork mauld, love your vids!

 

Highlights for me were -

 

• Seeing the Typhoon in D Day markings
   
   
  
• In the first scene, the Spit nose down going hell-for-leather, but seemingly just keeping up with the Typhoon nose high and hanging there
   
   
  
• The manoeuvrability of the Typhoon at high or low speed, looks like it could out dogfight the Spit ...
   
   
  
• ... and that's a hell of an achievement for a delta configuration, shows that the canard/strake beats reflexing for pitch control
   
   
  
• I'd not noticed the extent of the l/e cuffs before
   
   
  
• The mach 2 Typhoon at 90 knots! The Spit would have trouble getting as slow as that.
