RAF Typhoons at Northolt - Amazing Pics
 

RAF Typhoons based at RAF Northolt, west London, for Operation Olympic Guardian.

You gotta love these, especially the 7th one. That's what you call noise abatement procedure!

Very nice....TY

The plane still is butt ugly.

You're welcome

better looking than the F-22, F-35, Rafale, Gripen and Super Hornet if you ask me!

the other way around. ;)

lol dude, the only one that comes close in terms of look it's the Rafale, but the EFA still looks better than the rest. Its proportions, fuselage shape and the peculiar intakes make for a great looking machine.

I see a lot of Typhoons where I live, generally behaving rather dramatically, and they're fantastic looking machines. They're also LOUD, definitely dialled all the way to 11.

But.

They're not as loud as the F-15s. F-15s are so loud they make my 11 month old son cry.

Ah yes, the F-15s. One of my all time faves. I spent some time at RAF Lakenheath watching them take-off. Indescribably loud to anyone who has never heard them.

Listen to the old F-4 Phantoms on a hot takeoff, that's noise! I love the lower rumbling noises that jet made. Newer jets are too high pitched, like girl voices compared to the deep bass rumblins of the Phantoms...

Great.

1st an Italian(an Italian!) tells me how beautiful the EF is, and now some ppl start to love noise.
WTF?
Noise is not cool, however if you really love noise you must love the tristar...

Not these?

Darn.

funny, that was the pic I had in mind when I first read the the thread. ;)

It's the first on Wikipedia.

I could have looked harder, but I couldn't be bothered.

Tempest was better.

LOL it's a matter of national pride I suppose, although I still think that the best looking fighter jet of all times is the F-14 Tomcat: no matter where you look at it from, it's gorgeous and HUGE!

And yes, the F-4 was way louder than the F-15!!

wow, for a second you really scared me - I see you're back on track. ;)
