    Another Typhoon.

    This afternoon there was again was the sound of a Typhoon as he banked over us with afterburners on, the sound and crack of the engine was a loud as thunder when it's right over head. Looking up I could just see the plane in sharp bank as it disappeared into some cloud.
    A real audio treat.

      It's a Tai Foong...Cantonese for Big Wind. I think that's where the English derived the name for the hurricane like storm in the east. If it were a WW11 one Mr Super John would have caught site of the whole plane above him. :tears-of-joy:

      Cheers,
