The first one is from 2008 but I've been watching 'Spooks' recently and when I heard about the typhoon, my first thought was that it sounded like an MI5 cover story

The typhoon nearly makes as much noise as a Vulcan. Superb piece of kit. I like to see my tax being spent on something so loud.
Wish I could see properly and was clever because would be my dream job. Getting a shout over the radio to break everyone's windows in the midlands. Good job we upgraded our windows to typhoon proof. |

It was right outside my house in seconds more or less the fastest thing i've seen in a long time thought it was lightning bolts with the noise!
 Brilliant to see though  |

Didn't see the Typhoons but we certainly heard the sonic boom.
Thought another section of the cast iron gutter had fallen off and I was going to spend the weekend up the ladder again

even more off topic but between 8 - 10 years ago the company I work for used to hold seasonal roadshows at Bruntingthorpe where a Vulcan was being slowly restored. There was always two old retired RAF chappies collecting basically loose change from course attendees to help fund the project. When I saw the exact same magnificent aircraft at the Windermere Airshow last July there was a lump in my throat. I hope those men lived to see it fly again |
