Somtimes just a parked jet makes you think Wow!!

I was in a vinyard on the steep banks of the Rhine river (near Koblenz) and saw one of these bad boys come screeching along low level. LOUD.
 
Nice shot. I have only seen one real Tornado. It was at a air show back when I was a kid.
 
Me thinks I saw one yesterday approaching Boscombe Down. Might be wrong as was on motorcycle so it was a bit risky to look up for a long time!
 
you get used to them, especuially from where i am, Lincolnshire UK... Have noticed the GR4's start flying in swept wing recently too!
 
The Tornado or "Tonka" in RAf banter is just a quality, quality, jet its one of the best looking and loudest jets ive ever seen, I love it, you feel the noise in your chest its unreal, my biggest regret is that I will never have the chance to fly in or pilot one myself!
 
where does it come from?

peter, would you be so kind to tell me where this tonka comes from? I've the alphasim one, not proprely a new and stunning one, but with an acceptable VC and external model. In your opinion is there something better around here?
thanks.
 
It really is the Alphasim/Virtavia Tornado F.3 no mods no textures just the basline model which I have had for years now!
