Typhoons hit Gander





Royal Air Force Eurofighter Typhoons made a stopover in Gander this past week and were captured on these digital images by local lawyer and aviation buff Mark Stares.

In the top photo, a Eurofighter from 17 Squadron RAF, the operational evaluation unit makes its final approach into Gander.

Military aircrafts of all types routinely make visits to major airports in Newfoundland and Labrador.
