No Jacko,

Simply that as Safeware has said, his name is on the side.

Sorry if that has caused any confusion

Typhoon shots
 

I have some great photos of the Typhoon 'incident' unfortunately I can't attach them to my post!!!!

Smudger552 are these photos in the public domain yet because I have a number of photos as well that seem to be doing the rounds. About 12 photos before, during and after.

I guess we must consider them to be in the "Public Domain" as I have recieved them from several different places.

On a related note.

Can't find the original thread where last year's Fairford Typhoon 'incident' was discussed, but there is a very clear video at the link below. I don't think it's been posted before - apologies if it has.

STM, it *was* posted at the time, but anyone trying to find the original thread would be hard pressed to locate it using the search function here. So I don't think too many apologies are required!

By the by, I've found that googling in the search terms one is hunting for and then adding 'pprune' to the end of the search string will usually get you to the thread.

I remember when the PRuNe search function actually worked.

It still does, Jacko, and it is better than ever. Just needs to be used properly:rolleyes:

Theres a photo of the actual incident over on keypublishing.

Just spotted this on another forum. Quite amazing;

They just gotta do something about those full nose down canards before the next time!

By the look of what is coming out of the jet pipes, the engines didn't take kindly to being fed ground up runway.

I would think the intakes and engines are going to be the most expensive things to repair in this case, perhaps they should fit castors under the intakes?

Skid blocks would be a good idea - use some of that F1 technology!

slide show pictures
 

Got a very impressive powerpoint presentation of the landing in an email today which I've attempted to post, but failed. If someone could pm me with the instructions on how to do it I'll put them up.

Edit - Just seen Another St Evian's post (who clearly does know how)

IFR probe
 

..was that meant to be deployed?

Maybe if he had selected IFR the nose U/C would have come out!!!

Skid blocks would be a good idea - use some of that MF7 technology!

The PowerPoint is here

IFRP - '..was that meant to be deployed?'

yes - stops Automatic Low Speed Recovery from kicking in and taking you skyward again.
