Lots of the footage is not of a Typhoon but rather a Tempest. The most obvious difference is the fin. The Tempest has a wider and differently shaped fin. The second is wing airfoil shape. The Tempests' wing is much thinner.

Surely the Eurofighter Typhoon is the namesake, not the Hawker Typhoon as it came first.

Hooray looks like I’m American P 51 is going home

Yes

East Kirkby?

Please slow your commentary down - it’s just sounds rushed and clumsy.

Great work fantastic project , but my gripe is why is the other restoration of a Typhoon that is being restored to flying condition in Canada never mentioned..?

👍

I can remember flying over Lasham when this was stored there with the Ambassodor and a 707. I also remember (going back a veery long time) seeing them flying out of Heathrow and Gatwick.

I've waited years for a Typhoon to fly again and hear the Sabre running, ,fantastic aircraft!

SA Tempest. 486 NZ Squadron.

You seem to have shown more shots of Tempests than Typhoons in your film. It is very simple to tell the difference , fin, rudder and wing platform being the most obvious differences.

I watched a documentary from the 80’s on the Typhoon on YT last year, or maybe a couple years back. They were interviewing WWII RAF Typhoon pilots. A gentleman was recounting his downing of an FW190 over the channel. He was seated in an armchair in his study, but the memory sort of transported him back to that moment and he got this distant look in his eyes. Suddenly, seated in the cockpit, he raised his left hand as if it was resting on the throttle and said “I had 2000 horsepower in this hand”. This event was late in the war, and that aircraft’s Napier Sabre specification was the very latest in service in 1945. The FW190 was attempting to run away at very low altitude. No chance! In the end, the Typhoon was a formidable interceptor, and a match for its intended adversary. The British Thunderbolt, capable of doing multiple jobs well. The Sabre H24, with sleeve valve train, is an amazing thing to contemplate building.

I’d love to see it fly with the Lancaster

Much of this footage shows Tempests, not Typhoons

Great content but terribly boring delivery.

I wish our close family friend Group Captain D.J. Scot DSO OBE DFC and bar was here to see this he had some remarkable stories flying Typhoons during his war service with the RAF and RNZAF.

Can’t wait.

What language is he speaking?

whats going on with the narration? sound like a robot, well done for doing this but this narrator is awful.

You may well have earned a subscribe and like if your narration wasn't so piss poor.

How is a notoriously troublesome 80 year old engine going to be reliable enough now to operate, whatever they do to restore it ?

Being a Typhoon freak ...WOW !!! An aircraft with dicey landing characteristics is always interesting....

Like some of the earlier comments, I had no idea they were planning to get this old girl back to flying condition. I recently found the Kermit Weeks (Fantasy of Flight) talks with Richard Grace, about his Typhoon project. Richard has taught Kermit some very interesting facts about the whole project. This is of course still hanging in the balance depending upon various other factors. I am holding my breath about the whole thing, but at 68 myself, I just hope I can last to see them all fly. Richard is of course Nick and Caroline Graces son, and Caroline took up the mantle of flying the twin seater Spit after Nick's tragic car accident.

You both sound good so please.....NO AI voices. I instantly switch those off!!!

A lot of Tempests visible in this movie! Tail and wings are very different.

Hi Guys! Fantastic! ( What about the restoration of the TEMPEST V? ?

Awesome! But I'm 68... I don't know if I will see her to fly.....

I'm sure you know this already but your voice was only recorded on the left side

Think about lottery funding it has been done for other projects, it accelerate the rebuilding process.

I appreciate Avro Vulcan XL426 owned by the Vulcan Restoration Trust at London Southend Airport doesn’t fly. But being the only hangared “live” V-Bomber in the world and the amount of work going on this winter to continue its preservation it might have been a good addition to the video 👍

Slow down your commentary…. Try taking a breath between sentences

Great stuff . Ive a 1.6th scale typhoon that i fly radio controlled. Nice to see a real one inthe air .

What a superb plane!One of the numerous design of Mr.Kelly Johnson, among so many famous others.

An absolute stunner of an aircraft.

Chastise and Evelyn both pronounced incorrectly at which point I lost interest 😔

シービクセンは事故で飛行不能になっていた筈ですが、再び飛べる様になったんですね。再レストアに加わった全てのスタッフさんに拍手!

Still just a beautiful aircraft.

Well seeing a P-51 go over ties it.

Nice

Superb summary, concise and to the point. Nice work - I am sure you sub count will rise if you make stuff like this. As for the aviation moments, man, after the Tempest II flying, I can't wait to hear a Sabre running - oh to see a Tempest V! And regarding the Flying Legends, I still feel a bit sad that the best airshow and the best airfield in the country cannot seem to make it work in the same place. It all seemed very strange to me.

My Dad an ATC Chief Pilot flew it after it landed in Washington DC on the record breaking 1943 flight.

Was this the connie bassed on Ascension island for early Appolo missions?, ( project fire )call sign whisky vicktor 2, piloted by Grant Younger. If so my dad has seen this very bird. Apparently there was nearly a collision with donkeys on the runway one night.

First flight took place in 1943 👍😎

Same as others...couldn’t catch much of the commentary due to rapid speech and very intrusive background ‘music’

All these people restoring old aircrafts should be granted : “craftsmen jewels of the world “ , as the Japanese celebrate their craftsmen for their talents. Writing from France.

Awesome ❤
