Notes:

One of a pair of Typhoons from 41 Sqn, the RAF’s trials and evaluation unit, based at RAF Coningsby, is seen here during a low-level sortie through the Machynlleth Loop. The lumps on the pilot’s helmet are infra-red LEDs that calculate the position of his head and trigger appropriate sensors to provide him with continuous situational information.
