The debut for 'Blackjack' at
The debut for 'Blackjack' at the Royal International Air Tattoo (RIAT) 2022, RAF Coningsby's Typhoon Display Team, rattle the skies with their display.
Flight Lieutenant Adam 'Paddy' O'hare is this year's ANARCHY1 (the Callsign for the Typhoon display pilot) and he ripped up the skies with his roaring two Rolls Royce EJ2000 engines along with the whistling dynamics of the Typhoon's contours.
The Royal Air Force source their Typhoon display pilots from 29 Squadron, based at RAF Coningsby. 29 Squadron is an Operational Conversion Unit (OCU) which is a conversion unit where junior pilots fresh from completing their fast jet training at RAF Valley, come to experience their chosen path, the Eurofighter Typhoon.
Fancy becoming a Royal Air Force display pilot for the Red Arrows or Typhoon display team? How about representing their Battle of Britain Memorial Flight, flying one of their historic aircraft such as the Lancaster? Start your RAF pilot career today...here is some info:
Recruitment
https://recruitment.raf.mod.uk/roles/...
The Typhoon Display Team work-up begins with the selection of the Display Pilot, usually in Oct/Nov of the preceding season. The selection is conducted by the Officer Commanding (OC) 29 Squadron, Station Commander (Stn Cdr) RAF Coningsby and the Combat Air Force Commander (CA FC) with the final decision being made by Air Officer Commanding (AOC) No 1 Group (1 Gp). The selection is based on previous experience and ability as a Typhoon Pilot. Currently the Display Pilot is selected from the Qualified Pilot Instructors serving on 29 Squadron, the Typhoon Operational Conversion Unit (OCU).
Once selected the new Display Pilot which is Paddy, shadows his predecessor, the legend SAINTY, for the end of the season and has the opportunity to fly in display practices flown at RAF Coningsby for currency. Paddy has also been practicing at RAF Scampton and other places too. During this time Paddy is tasked with designing his display sequence. The sequence is usually made up of previously approved aerobatic manoeuvres that can be flown in Typhoon. New manoeuvres require AOC 1 Gp to approve them. Paddy must design not only a Full Display but also a Limited and Flat sequence used in the event of poorer weather.
During sequence development the Typhoon simulators are used to check the sequence before the airborne work-up is started. The simulator is also used throughout the work-up to prepare the Paddy for bad weather (including strong winds) and to practice aircraft handling in the unlikely event of an emergency during a display to ensure complete safety for the crowd.
The airborne part of the work-up starts with practices of the sequence at a base height of 5000ft, which is the normal minimum height that all Typhoon pilots can perform aerobatics. These flights are usually flown using straight line features such as coastlines, roads or runways in the local area surrounding RAF Coningsby. The full sequence must be flown at least 6 times before the work-up (or down in effect) continues. Following successful completion of the 5000ft display practices the sequence is approved by TFC and Paddy conducts a check flight with his Supervisor. He is subsequently cleared to practice below 5000ft and moves his work-up to overhead RAF Coningsby.
The work-up continues progressively stepping down base heights from 1500ft to 1000ft. Around 2 to 3 weeks is spent at each height but it is very weather dependant. At this height level turns and flypasts can also be conducted at 300ft and 100ft respectively.
The end of the work-up is the awarding of the Public Display Authority (PDA). AOC 1 Gp personally visits RAF Coningsby watches the display, reviews the work-up and if content grants the Display Pilot PDA, meaning he can then demonstrate the outstanding performance of Typhoon in front of crowds of hundreds of thousands of people during the summer display season. His suit also changes from green to black! Go Paddy!
