All part of the Midlands Air Festival at Ragley Hall. Based themselves at EMA for the weekend (as far as I can tell they are still there!). ANARCHY1 was its flight number for the displays. Had a nice surprise as it drifted over on Saturday afternoon (sadly without the afterburners on) on its way home, then got a repeat sighting on its way to the display on Sunday afternoon (passing directly overhead).

The ADSB flight tracking looks amusing - might see how long i can replicate that on flight sim next time (before i crash!)

ADS-B Exchange - tracking 9774 aircraft (adsbexchange.com)

By the way, this was the Typhoon that's had its tummy painted in union jack colours. Looked good from beneath (even with the hot day haze)!
