Eurofighter Typhoon: Ultimate Backseat Adventure & Countach Roof Troubles!

[@blackettphotography]

During my time in the service I flew in a Nimrod, Sea King, Lynx and a VC10 refuelling Tornados over Kuwait. Would love a ride in a fast jet! 😍🔥

What an experience in the typhoon! Looks like you took it in your stride! The countach is the gift that keeps giving! Certainly no shortage of content for the channel! Good video!

"The cost of flying a Typhoon for one hour is believed to be in the region of £3,875" I hope you got your (their?) moneys worth!

[@TheDIYTuners]

The cost of an empty seat is believed to be £0 😉

In my time, I did quite a few hours in the back seats (and piloting) on Mirage 2000 ;) "The cost of an hour of flight for an aircraft essentially covers the sums spent to ensure its maintenance. We can also add fuel consumption as well as pilot and mechanic sales. Since calculation methods may vary from one country to another, comparisons between different types of military aircraft are not always relevant. Due to the cost of hardware modifications and software maintenance to keep the system operating and operationally current, it can differs a lot * it amounted to 83,000 euros for the F-22A Raptor, 41,000 euros for the F-35 and 22,000 euros for the A-10 Warthog, 30 000 for the F18, 27 000 for the F16 the Rafale amounted to 15,000 euros and 9000 euros for the Mirage 2000.… EF2000 between 16 000 & 20 000 € And the prize went to the B-1 Lancer bomber , with 169,000 euros ( civilian B747...around 20 000€) *The operating costs of the Austrian EF2000s at the time ( 74 000€/h !!!) were due to the under-utilization of the aircraft and the costs of launching the production program. In addition, as for Italy, the purchase costs of the device are included in the calculation."

If you contact Paul at buy the horns he has all the info you need to get it correct. Tell him Stan sent you. He is a great guy and sells every part you will need for that car. If its a first gen prova you better check the qtr glass openings aswell. They were flat on the first gens. The second gens had curved qtr windows. The roofline is off by about 50 mm on the first gens. But this has been modified for the periscopia and no provas had that. Now that you have put this up I know that the place that had the car was not being truthfull. I asked if the roofline and qtr windows had been corrected and the bald guy said his man pj had corrected the roofline and qtr glass aswell as the a pillars. So now his doors will need to be corrected after you correct the A pillars and roofline.I asked him for door and roof measurements and he kept telling me no problem. I will do it when I get time. Now I see it was never corrected and he was not being truthfull that he had corrected all that. No wonder he could not send measurements. I still would like some from you in the frame and now that I see what you will need to correct any of those measurements aswell. That sure would help me out. Please. No one seems to be very truthful or helpful in this industry. Im finding its full of flakes that say on video they will be there to help all car builders and when you ask they blow a guy off. You seem like a sharp honest guy. I think you would not tell me a lie just to seem important like the bald guy from the shop it came from. He says he will help but I'm still waiting for simple measurements of things sitting on his workbench . Im thinking he is full of hot air.

Yep I've been speaking with Paul for quite a while now he's mega helpful. Your best bet is message me on Instagram or Facebook and I will help where I can 👌

[@fenderveal7339]

I will do that. I have a fb deal. Is there a name I need to use? I'm glad you found Paul. I have two sons that are in the local sheriffs department and one is a canine officer handler. We take in retired service dogs and have six now. Out of 5 kids 2 boys are in the service 2 are in the sheriff department and my 1 daughter is a dentist. I will look you up.

[@TheDIYTuners]

Same name as my KZbin channel on both Facebook and Instagram

[@fenderveal7339]

@@TheDIYTuners Okay I found you. You may already know this but I was unaware. The bald guy from there is Terry fox. I did not know this until last night. There is a web site about his practices. Prova haters site with about 30 people in it. I dealt with prova in the 90s and he never said to me he was not the same people I dealt with before. Im very disappointed in his truthfulness with me. Now alot makes sense. I build street rods now and bought a Strickland body to get back into the replica car trade.
