Vacuum sucks, valves seep, Sh1t happens. The Typhoon is a cracking jet, much envied by our cousins across the water (past Ireland). You may also be seeing wing tip vortices generated by the bits and bobs hanging on the aforesaid wing tips. As they say "up north", " there's naw't wrong wee what you're seeing". Nice effect I think myself.
