RAF Jets Scrambled
« on: May 24, 2013, 12:49:38 PM »
RAF Typhoons were scrambled to intercept a commercial flight from Lahore after an attempt at cockpit invasion.
Two Typhoons escorted the Pakistan airlines flight to Stanstead where 2 were arrested.

Yes it is a Typhoon.  I know this because of this rare photo of them lifting off.   If you look close you can see the pilot is Zack1234.  The typhoon is his most trusted ride so surly its a Typhoon.

Well yeah, he missed all the excitment. You know how long it takes him to get his comb-over just right for his helmet?
