Well, I have always wanted to go to the Mach Loop, which is a low flying area in Wales, UK. It has been very slow activity wise for months now but we went for our first trip on Monday and Tuesday last week and with the sun shining the aircraft returned to the Loop for what was a fantastic experience. I really struggled with the photography here as they are unbelievably close at times and doing 500 knots, but I definitely plan to go back for another crack at it! Hope you like;

I agree with that!
You got some great shots! It's at the top of my list if I ever go back to "Old Blighty".

If you consider those images to be struggles, I can only imagine how nice your "good" images must be! They look pretty good to me, great location, I would love to visit that site.

Solid Effort!

The pre-delivery Typhoon looks more like a spacecraft than an aircraft!

Thanks for the ID help there, Jay; I haven't heard anything about that thing in, probably, 15 years. Had no idea it was still in the works.
