thanks so much for posting this, I was there on the day, pity about the conditions but at least the damp air upped the volume levels. good camera work too, nice one.
I thought it was Charlie Matthews last year!? Anyway, it was quite limited as to what it could do - i mean the cloud base prevented any steep climbs etc. and it was one of the the new display pilot's first displays. I cant comment on how good it is, but i fera that at RIAT the gripen & rafale will outclass it in terms of displays.
There is something in that plane that amazes me more than F22 or Su-35.. The power of the engines!!

Ive seen better display on typhoon. Think Jim Walls is much better pilot on the typhoon 07 and 08 Display Team.
