Fantastic video as always, I was also tracking the typhoon, atlas and the chinook passed over my house later that evening, what an awesome day you had 🤘🏻
Good to see the Texan T1s seeing off those pesky Deltas and the worried looking F15s…..well done guys….Joking aside great capture despite the conditions, love the stills, thanks for posting.
Very nice Elwyn 👌👍 a nice mix of craft and excellently captured 👏👏 weather permitting I might be back over myself for a couple of days soon 🤞👍😁 ATB Andy
Very enjoyable watching - thank you very much! Looks like there were some tricky wind conditions towards the end, as the prop driven planes and Chinook were bumping up and down.
Actually I think the weather and poor light improved the video. We can see good photography in good weather any day but to get images like that in weather like that is a real eye-opener.
@@Dafmeister1978 We live north of the Berwyns - where the weather is no better - just a bit colder. Chinooks, Hercs (rip), Merlins, Texans and the daily Belugas but, sadly, no fast jets.
MERCI pour la video, le mauvais temps est "parfait" le son est excellent. J'adore les commentaires de comparaison entre EF et Rafale.. 😂 de toutes façon l'erreur est d'essayer de collaborer avec l'allemagne. Trop compliqué trop lents, trop "selfish" rappelez vous l'un des plus BEAUX AVIONS DE TOUS LES TEMPS !! UK/FR ............ CONCORDE !!! And just imagine what multirole aircraft we could invent again....
Elwyn, I used to live in Tywyn back in ‘69/70… tell me was this going on then?, I cannot remember… BTW great videos and images. Are you Nikon/Canon/Sony plus what lens… thank you…
@biilybob5507. … the Eurofighter has significantly better performance with much greater combat radious and speed. I prefer the appearance of the Rafaele but that’s a cosmetic matter. As for performance in war games it’s about more than just the aircraft themselves. Check out Operation Skyshield, then you can tell me how superior was the Avro Vulcan when compared to the B47 and B52.
I didn't like it when France left the programme that led to the Typhoon, but I sure love the Rafale! And even more so, when it powers through the Mach Loop! 😀
The concept was different. A fighter jet of air supremacy or a multiple purpose aircraft. France has chosen an aircraft for all missions. It's cheaper to maintain.
I didn't see yet a Typhoon take off from an aircraft carrier. And it was the main reason why France left this programme. I had read it in the press. I don't know other reason. Perhaps a threat of loss and theft of French technology aeronautics without a real counter party... @@LEJapproach
@@LEJapproachunfortunately it is not as the rafale is. Typhoon was designed as air superiority first and after for ground attack when the rafale was designed from the beginning for air superiority and ground attack, and cas, and operated from carriers... and the best thing is it is able to do all of this during the same mission if required.
@@hangar1873 #1 - That doesn't contribute anything to answering my question. #2 - How do you know? and #3 - If you design something with a primary and a secondary mission profile in mind, it'll be really good in its primary role and a little less good in the secondary one. If you do it with two mission profiles in mind, it'll do neither of them really good, let alone when it's about three! So, how exactly is the latter better than the former?
😂 Love that set back view with all the togs in the foreground, not a single piece of glass panning on the Typhoons. 2 years ago we’d have killed to see a phoon in the loop 😬
I don't know why I enjoy watching any flight footage about the A400M. There's something fascinating between the turboprops and the way the wings have this anhedral angle. I'm just lovestruck.
That cold feeling running down your spine every single fly by... I must admit, I'm a junky! Brightens up my day, for that I say, Thank You Sir! May I have another!!!👍🤘🫡
The A400M is a beast off a plane! It should have more orders and Airbus should update the Engines and a 3 to 4 meters increase in the wing span and a 10 to 15% increase in power output, but is the best multirole cargo plane in the world in speed,range, capabilities on rough landing, amazing design of engines and great engineering, congratulations EADS! You got a winner just need more publicity unfortunaly, because the Airplane is Top
I can only think the camcorder was recording when it was on the ground, I picked it up and pressed the record button again, but I must have switched it off and didn't notice, a dumb move on my behalf.
Cracking video Elwyn. Is that Blwch middle shelf at the beginning? Also love the big picture of the Typhoon - one for the living room wall that one! 👌🏼👍🏼😁
The noise the Rafale makes is magnificent!
The nose of the Marine version is even better....
It's literally the exact same as the typhoon

Glad to see Rafale and EF working together, and to see them to "mach loop". The French bird is pretty good looking on the pic's, nicely done sir !
I think the gloomy weather adds to the dramatic footage. Hats of to Elwyn for this stunning video captured in such testing conditions.👍
Many thanks! 👌

I love the Rafale. Probably the most beautiful jet fighter ever built.
Tout juste excellent, surtout la dernière image avec l'équipage qui salut le public !
Totally hooked on your videos! Watching incredible fighter jets with those thunderous sounds right in my living room is an absolute thrill!
Glad you enjoy it!
Elwyn R brings it close up to the cockpit and gets the hand wave shots!!! Professional photographer of all time
Wow, thanks! ☺️
Really enjoyed watching. Love the landscape and sounds
Glad you enjoyed it
What a great mixed bag, made even more interesting with Rafale. Cracking stills Elwyn👍👍👍🙂
Glad you enjoyed it
Brilliant pics they are fantastic thank you
Joli !
Greetings from France
Splendid footage! So many beautiful aircraft and the scenery is just gorgeous. The last shots of the Atlas are my favourite!
Glad you enjoyed it, it was just to dark when the French came through
Love 'em both, but the Rafale looks so mean!
Beautiful i love the rafale and the eurofighter typhoon
Me to! Good to see them back 👌
Rafale my favorite of the Euro deltas
The stills are absolutely stunning!!!
So stunning beautiful area the Mach loop well done
Glad you enjoyed it
Love to see the Typhoon and Raphale playing together !
Stunning, my friend. As always!
Thank you! Cheers!
Brilliant shots, what a display, thankyou.
Glad you enjoyed it 👌
Great video.... Like the pilot waving at the end.... Cool
Surpassed yourself there, boyo. Great lighting at 2.50, and cinematic camera positions. Love the Synchronised Camera Panning Display Team.

Glad you like them!👌

Senor Elwyn R, this was perfecto! I like visit this mach loop one day to see the aircrafts. Maybe I can see you there!
Jeez I love the sound they make and dayum the Rafale is sexy

hello nice video small mistake it's not Rafael but Rafale
Thanks for spotting my mistake 😊
I wonder why the Typhoon had his strobe lights on, but the Rafale didn't?
Last rafale did have the strobe lights on. It seems that the first one used the landing light instead.
@@iiishinryuiiiRafale don't have strobe Light located on wingtips. Only back and belly
The F15s just looks right for a fighter jet.
Superbe rafale !! j'adore !!!!😍🟦⬜🟥
In the close shot of the A400M, are the pills waving, or are they hiding?
🤣🤣 wave 👋 I think
Waving at the end or hiding their faces?

I wana go here from Japan but,
Do they fly every day except holiday or day off?
If someone know I want the answer.
Neat. There’s been some good days up there recently 👍
And dam wet aswell 😇
I was tracking the Typhoon as it went through Lichfield Corridor on the way.
Did you happen to catch the Registration of the Rafale?
No I didn't and the rest of the photos are pretty dam blurr ☺️
