The Eurofighter Typhoon is a highly agile aircraft, designed to be a supremely effective dogfighter in combat. Later production aircraft have been increasingly better equipped to undertake air-to-surface strike missions and to be compatible with an increasing number of different armaments and equipment, including Storm Shadow and Brimstone missiles. The Typhoon had its combat debut during the 2011 military intervention in Libya with the UK's Royal Air Force (RAF) and the Italian Air Force, performing aerial reconnaissance and ground-strike missions.
This Typhoon was coming into land at RAF Coningsby and the name of the image 'Three Greens' comes from the 3 green light indications that tell the pilot the landing gear is down and locked.
In the eighties I traveled through the Libyan desert. From Cairo to Assioet it was about 1500 km. Only desert with just a few oasis!

"Hello, my dear friends from the world of photography!
Time has flown by, and I haven't been the best at staying connected here on Flickr. Over time, I found myself more active on Facebook and Instagram.
I hope you're all doing well, and I'd love to reconnect! Here are my new Instagram links."

Apollonia in Cyrenaica (modern Libya) was founded by Greek colonists and became a significant commercial centre in the southern Mediterranean. It served as the harbour of Cyrene, 20 km (12 mi) to the southwest. Apollonia became autonomous from Cyrene at latest by the time the area came within the power of Rome, when it was one of the five cities of the Libyan Pentapolis, growing in power until, in the 6th century A.D., it became the capital of the Roman province of Libya Superior or Libya Pentapolitana. The city became known as Sozusa, which explains the modern name of Marsa Susa or Susa, which grew up long after the cessation of urban life in the ancient city after the Arab invasion of AD 643.

Two Air Libya RJ100s at Cranfield. Nearest is 5A-FLA which arrived at Cranfield in August 2017. At the time, it was assumed she arrived for maintenance, but here she is over a year later and I think its safe to say she ain't flying out!
Behind is 5A-FLE which has been in for maintenance recently, and has survived the ordeal, looks to be ready to leave shortly.
