A nice aspiration – unlikely but not totally impossible – would be to see a Typhoon burning up the runway at Fairford and going ballistic closely followed by a Lightning from Thunder City doing the same!!

since these aircraft are registered and flown in another country, wouldnt they be allowed to come to fairford? makes some sense in my head. what are the legalilties concerning this?

is the insurance problem due to the EU stipulating that ANY aircraft over a certain weight is classified as an “airliner” 😮 and therefore has to be insured as such including baggage insurance! 😮 😎

not too keen on the dragging of the engine blocks!!!:eek:

brings tears to my eyes……. very powerful images.
thankyou for sharing also

If it was as difficult to eject from the meat box as has been suggested, perhaps MB have failed to notice these difficulties….afterall their test aircraft is still a twin seater Meatbox….;)

And they are not very secretive about it…..

so the eurofighter seats were tested in an aircraft almost 60 years old??? 😉

related to this topic, any news on the He 219 and the smithsonian? apparently the wings are being restored to go with the fuselage. americans are lucky ******s in that they seem to have a fair few unique german aircraft arado 234, do335 Ta152 (as discussed)

quite a beautiful aircraft in her own way
