It was a very good (and not 'impromptu') display - the group of distinguished visitors who watched the display were extremely impressed.

Lots of noise, lots of 'g' and it demonstrated the aircraft's performance very well indeed.

For a graphic description of this truly outstanding display sequence, see:
RAF Typhoon Display Team - The Display (http://www.raf.mod.uk/typhoondisplay/displayprogramme/the_display.cfm)

Probably the most impressive display by an RAF aircraft in decades....:ok: Our day with the AH64 force was brilliant and exceptionally well organised, but this was definitely the silver balls on the icing on the cake!

i was looking through that before beags, whilst searching about flypasts. it certainly does seem to be a lot more impressive than previous years.

im not sure i followed the sequence completely on the graphics, but the write up was impressive enough

hats off to the driver.

I agree it is a highly polished display. One of the most impressive manoeuvres is the negative g outside turn.

'Upon rolling out from the turn he (Tim) immediately sets 110° angle of bank before pushing the stick all the way forward entering a negative 3.5g outside turn!'

During the 2010 Airshow Season look out for the Synchro Pair - Spitfire and Typhoon.

I was fortunate enough to get wind of the display 15 minutes before it was due so a mad cycle upto the airfield ensued...standing at the north side of 05 I got an excellent view, when he did the Negative g turn it came right over my head, probably a sight and definitely a sound that'll stick with me forever.
Overall the Display was excellent and due to the display line I was very close to the action for once instead of the usual crowd-line distance.
The noise was absolutely incredible, i'll probably never see a Display as good...Fancy coming back next week? :)

Also BEagle were you part of the Contingent of Puddle Jumpers..?
