RAF Coningsby - REHEAT Display Practice (April 2025)

So two weeks after his practice display, the 2025 Typhoon Display Pilot, Sqn Ldr Nathan Shawyer, was scheduled for another practice, and right on time he appeared, heading straight towards us. This time he appeared to be a lot lower when he was aligned with the runway, as well as throwing the jet around a lot more than last time!

We got there at about 9:15, just as the morning sorties were getting ready to takeoff, and we got one performance takeoff from a twin-stick to catch up with the other two COBRA flights.

Then the display occurred, and due to it being at a lower height than last time, many of us were caught off guard by him approaching!
