Typhoon goes down the drain

I think the group at the hangar door is the Board Of Enquiry being convened.

Also, the Typhoon in question (and those in the hangar behind) have 12 Sqn markings.

Thanks. To answer your question in post #14, the hangar is in Qatar. You're welcome.

Thank you.

Especially as I don't recall actually asking one.

in your post 14 you said “can’t place the hangar”. Which could be construed as a question. But as you also said it’s in Qatar this last answer wasn’t terribly helpful. I would suggest it’s Dukhan Airbase.

Well, strictly speaking, it's not a Qatari Typhoon but a UK Typhoon. That's it's a 12 Sqn aircraft suggests the pic could be Coningsby or Qatar, and I was happy to clear that up in response to the question as to not being able to place the hangar. Again, you're welcome.

I would say it’s blindingly obviously not Conningsby!

12 Squadron deployed to Dukhan earlier this month "to secure the skies during the FIFA World Cup".
