RAF TYPHOON FIGHTER PILOT "TURBO" RIPS 600 KNOTS HIGH SPEED PASS INTO DEMO • COSFORD AIR SHOW 24
146,662
Published 2024-06-13
The Royal Air Force made history on the 22nd April 2024 by revealing their new Typhoon display livery for 2024. It has been 3 years since the last livery was produced, with the all famous and much loved ‘Blackjack’, which flew the Union Flag Livery.
As it is the 80th Anniversary of the D-Day landings in Normandy this year, the theme to the Typhoon’s livery was given this honour. The new livery is painted in the Hawker Typhoon scheme with 257 Squadron markings which includes the squadron markings which was FM, Camo and D-Day (or invasion) Stripes.
The black and white stripes are what are known as D-Day or Invasion stripes. These stripes were to help identify friendly aircraft from enemy aircraft. The yellow slats on the leading edges of the wings also played a similar purpose to help identify allied aircraft. D-Day was a joint operation and with many countries such as Canadian, American and British involved, being hit by enemy fire would be a risk, so the D-Day stripes would help identity friendly aircraft. Though one thing to point out is that Hawker Typhoon had the black and white stripes before D-Day to not get mistaken for the Bf 109’s.
On D-Day, the specific markings FM-G, the Hawker Typhoon aircraft was flown by Pilot Officer Denzel Jenkins. The Typhoon serial is ZJ913.
This year’s RAF Typhoon Display pilot is Flt Lt David ‘Turbo’ Turnbull. We normally expect to hear callsign ANARCHY1 when it comes to the RAF Typhoon display pilot, however, this year, the display pilot's callsign is "TURBO"! Well, if there was a callsign available that had your nickname, you’d surely take it. The callsign is actually from RAF LOSSIEMOUTH’S 6 Squadron and Turbo has borrowed it from them for the year which mean 6 Squadron are without this callsign.
Flight Lieutenant David "Turbo" Turnbull is this year's RAF Typhoon Display pilot and he has already produced a particular sequence that will wow the crowds. The slow aileron roll into the max alpha is a signature manoeuvre from Turbo! He is becoming one of the best Typhoon display pilots of all time. With a hard deck of 100ft, let's ride!
We normally expect to hear callsign ANARCHY1 when it comes to the RAF Typhoon display pilot, however, this year, the display pilot's callsign is "TURBO"! Our display pilots nickname is 'Turbo' but is it not Anarchy1? We knew that this year was going to be different and TURBO is the new callsign for the display pilot, which has been borrowed from Lossiemouth's 6 Squadron.
This year's 2024 Typhoon Display Pilot, David "TURBO" Turnbull will be doing his first set of 10 practice displays at 1,500ft and then will lower it to 500ft hard deck before being allowed to smack it right down to 100ft. Once you hear callsign TURBO1, there will be excitement. However, Turbo will also be carrying out practice displays around the country, this is to prepare him and get used to performing displays away from the home base, which is what airshow season is all about. Before Turbo will be allowed to display at airshows, he will need to achieve and obtain his PDA (Public Display Authority). Without this insurance, he will not be able to display at airshows and venues. The other responsibility is once a pilot obtains a PDA, they cannot go more than 10 days with some sort of display, whether practice or real world at air shows. Failing this would result in having to re-apply for a PDA.

Air Shows, bring on Turbo our "Superbo"! Thank you Ted & Nikos for the fab videography so we can watch all this brilliance again and again. We are proud of you all. 29 Squadron, this is a thnx to you too.
-
Absolutely incredible! I did say our Flt Lt David Turnbull would nail it and Turbo, you did ❤. That's what you call a display! Not ashamed to say, there were tears of elation & pride when I watched Turbo take Moggy through her paces at Cosford & can assure you, the spectators next to me, were in awe too!! High Alpha manoeuvre, oh my goodness me! Brighty, you must be chuffed with this too. 29 Squadron, Turbo and Ted thank you. ❤:_mog::_RAF::_raf2::_ted2:

-
Fantastic flying by Turbo.
-
Awe man !! These pilots and their machines are Stunningly Amazing. Who can't sleep at night knowing these guys are ready and willing to go go go ? Best regards Scottish AlF
-
My favourite display at cosford, really was special
-
I used to live near warton where the typhoons are maintained and the noises off the engines was amazing that was in 2002 I can't believe these aircraft are over 20 years old now! but they're beasts and remind me of a modern English electric lighting 🥰
-
What an entrance, what an exit and all the bits in between. The amazing Turbo and Moggy, you make us so proud. Excellently filmed as always Nikos and Ted :_raf2::_mog::_mog::_nikos::_ted::_RAF:

Wow, what a show Turbo put on. I know the new livery isn’t to everyone’s taste but I love it :_RAF::_ted3::_mog:🫡

Turbo tearing it up in magnificent Moggy! 😅:_nikos::_look::_mog::_ted3::_TCS:

Fairly new to military aviation, but have seen the Typhoon perform many times. I know the F35 is suppose me to be the “better” aircraft, but with a display like this you have to believe the Typhoon is still right up there for capability! I’m aware of “gens” and terms like that, and I don’t know where the Typhoon currently sits, but it’ll always be a factor mine.
-
Amazing display...and still one of the very best in capability terms ❤🇬🇧
-
I will be seeing it soon at Blackpool & Southport airshows I love the typhoon it reminds me of thunder-bird 1 and a saab viggen combined together lol 😆 nice video of turbo kicking arse 🥰
-
Wow Turbo and Moggi have done the Typhoon proud , a really exciting performance :_mog::_blackjack::_typhoon::_ted::_ted3:
-
Stunningly good footage on this Eurofighter Typhoon in D-Day livery !!! 😊
-
That opening was pure old school fast jet. I recall airshows from being a child & you'd get the likes of EE Lightnings & Phantoms that would bomb in to open displays. Of course, they never had quite that agility to show afterwards 😂 Love Turbo's display & excellent filming Nikos! :_mog::_mog::_mog::_mog::_mog::_nikos::_ted2::_raf2::_TCS:

This is the first time I have seen Moggy & Turbo flying her. Cracking display!! Also love the D Day Markings! Still strange not seeing Blackjack though.
-
No words can really begin to say quite what I want to say. Just magnificent from start to finish. Our boy did good 👍. Makes me feel immense pride watching Turbo as I have felt on every other watch. MOGGY looking elegant in the hands of the 2024 display pilot. Dancing to the 29 Squadron tune of David 'Turbo' Turnbull. So good to have this on repeat. So looking forward to watching at RIAT and Old Buckenham plus other opportunities. Turbo, I hope you were as chuffed as we were? RAF at its best. Ohh yeahh ❤:_RAF::_mog::_look::_ted::_raf2::_ted2:

Nice to see it in full! I was standing in the queue for a cup of at the time! 😢

Absolutely awesome 👌 Another brilliant display by "Turbo", great video. Thank you for sharing.
