You're right, I just love the way the Typhoon can hover, fly sideways and backwards.

However, if a near wipeout infront of the worlds media, several countries interested in buying the plane, and the then Defence Minister John Reid are your thing, check this out Aviation Video: Eurofighter Typhoon - United Kingdom - Air Force

Is it just me or does that eurofighter look tiny and nowhere near as menacing as an F18??? or even an F14 tomcat??

It looks like a toy in that video!!

I'll wager that it took a team of highly skilled surgeons to seperate that pilot from his flight suit!

Must have been a slow news day today, that video's been doing the rounds for weeks

Journalists are one tiny ickle step above estate agents IMO, they should all try and do a proper job

The latter posts are so right, the modern fighters with thrust vectoring make a Eurofighter display look like a Cessna 172

I know that A-A combat is fought over longer ranges these days, but if it comes down to it then I know with I'd rather have on my side!!

T6NL indeed! They eject just as it stalls, scary stuff. The instructor is a cool customer though.

Edit: Is the plane stalling or is it a reaction from the ejector?

I think I may have seen him eject. Just at the very end of the first crash footage, and also at the very end of the last replay I think you can just see someone ejecting.

F*ck the pilot! What about the poor bods on the ground.
The russkies are truly mad though.
Will never forget the pair crashing at Fairford early nineties- I was about level with them on the other side of the runway.

Was in the Ukraine - 77 were killed in the crowd. Both flight crew ejected OK, and were later jailed.

Story here

I was watching that Fairford crash from the end of the runway (MIG-29's by the way, not SU-27's) standing in the "Don't stand here in case the plane crashes" section Was amazing that nobody was killed that day
