RAF Coningsby mass takeoff of 26 Typhoons for RAF100 flypast 10.7.18

Welcome to a somewhat special video. It shows the launch of 26 Royal Air Force Eurofighter Typhoon FGR.4s and T.3s for the RAF100 flypast in London. What an incredible sight! Hope you enjoy the video.

DON'T CUT OUR ARMED FORCES .

Pity they never made a film of 54 Sqn's Phantoms making a survival scramble during one of our exercises at Coningsby in the early 1970's. That was spectacular - and noisy!

[@jackbradley2210]

Veronica Bennett sounds like quite a sight (and sound!)

Google Binbrook last day, 12 English Electric Lightnings taking off , now that's noise

[@minitrundle]

If the battle of Britain happened today...

[@Altenholz]

Absolutely insane!

[@gregg4164]

Its like the elephant walk back when SAC would roll out an entire squadron of B52's.

[@thewatchman1078]

This is the RAF at the rate of current defence cuts.

About five countries in the world with high standards training of these pilots

Would much rather see that lightning in the background taking off

[@x67th]

no

[@harryplummer6356]

Then why watch this - there are a number of posting showing Lightnings taking off.

@Mark Halstead. Yeah, me too. The double AB and vertical before it gets to the end of the runway... More than awesome.

[@fredMplanenut]

It's funny how it catches one's eye with each pass.

Spitfire for the 21st century

Awesome video 👍👍👍 subscribed

[@jackbradley2210]

Thanks a lot!

The typhoon with the RAF100 on its tail, is that Flt Lt Jim Peterson because he was the Typhoon Display Team pilot for 2018 and he had that on the Eurofighter he was flying. And he’s in 29 sqn at RAF Coningsby.

[@jackbradley2210]

It's a possibility. The RAF100 jet was not reserved strictly for the display team or Flt Lt Peterson however it is possible that he was participating in the flypast and that he was flying this aircraft. Thanks for watching

And an EEL @ 4:01
