Cool Vid. I'm guessing this Tornado photo was taken there. The Typhoon make such a strange noise as it comes toward the camera.

Interesting video.

 

Why do they all pass through that canyon? And why do they tip there wings like that? Is it a salute to the permanent crowd there?

if you follow the link:

 

"The crew, from RAF Lossiemouth, was photographed during a high-speed exercise through hills in Snowdonia."

 

looks like a bigger exercise maneuver.

 

wing tipping, to stay under mountain height and enter the next canyon in a right turn!)

one of the F-15 pilots used the right AB to prevent descent in that sharp curve..verry nice..haven t seen in reallife videos so far...thx for sharing!!!

 

so i don t think it s only to say hello to the spotters, it s more or less theire TASK to stay below radar scaners!)
