I don't disagree, but they do get very dirty:



Lighting was simply the bulb in the cooker hood that serves as my spray booth and the flourescent tube in my overhead desk lamp, not the most sophisticated set up for taking pics!

Thanks for the comments.


Our 'phoons get dirty, the two seaters get a little more dirty as they are heavily utilised and don't get that much down time between flights. They do get a wash, honest. Lets just say that if you were decorating your kids room you wouldn't paint your walls 'Typhoon grey' as it shows up all the marks, leaks and dirt. Come back two tone wrap around camo, all is forgiven!

Whoops, I forgot about this thread. Thanks for the further comments. The HUD is the kit part with a little Tamiya Clear Green thinned and painted on.

Are you based at Coningsby Harry? It's a long way from me but I've been up three or four times to take some shots. I love watching the Typhoons, such a beautiful aircraft, but I miss the Jaguars enormously. Glad I got some shots before they were retired.
