| Need good Hawker Typhoon pics and videos (short clips)
Hi all!
My squadron, 438, will soon be celebrating it's 75th anniversary.
We flew Hawker Typhoons during WW2 and I am looking for good Tyffie pics and action videos.
Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am putting together a montage and short film.
TY!

Country: | Here as a direct link to the photo: 
Here is the album where I got it from: http://www.ww2incolor.com/gallery/British
And here is another photo from the album: 
It might be colourised but it still probably the best photo of the Typhoon I have found and the site has some really good photos on it. http://www.ww2incolor.com/

According The Warpaint series No.5 "Hawker Typhoon", Typhoon JP736 was produced with JP723-756 series as Mark IB - contract Acft/943, contractor Gloster.

Country: | Besides I've found the link : http://perso.wanadoo.fr/christophe.a...oftyphoon.html
There is stated that the Typhoon IB is from No 175 Squadron at Westhampnett, in Autumn 1943.I don't know if it's true.I think it should be supported by others sources.

| I'll be back soon hopefully with a photo I took at RAF museum Hendon.
There is only 1 surviving Typhoon in the world. It has its d-day markings and looks so smart.
I'll be back after some hunting through the photo albums. | |
