Tip The Doodlebug

WWII RAF Hawker Typhoon takes down V1 flying bomb (doodlebug)

From the YouTube blurb:

The WW2 RAF pilots counter attack to the V1 menace was to gain altitude and dive at the flying bomb from the side opening fire with it's guns and cannons whilst using the deflection method of shooting. 

If guns and arnament failed or were exhausted it was found and proven that you could tip these flying bombs out of the sky by disturbing their own air flow. 

The skilled brave pilots did this by chasing and matching the bombs flying airspeed usually around 320 to 340 mph .They would then place the tip of their wing with great precision under the V1 wing and they would then rock their own wings from side to side to create an airflow disturbance ,which would in turn cause the V1's guidance gyroscope to fail and send the bomb crashing to earth. 

Pilots accounts show when they tipped these flying bombs the idea was NOT to touch the V1 in any way but use the wing airflow and aerodynamic pressure to destroy it.

I've heard a rumor of this, but not the detail.

RAF Typhoons over the Falkland Islands

Tam put up a post about RAF Flight 1435, originally from Malta, but now stationed in the Falkland Islands. Flight 1435 became famous in the early years of WW2 when they used their three Gloster Gladiator biplanes to repel Italian bombers. The three biplanes were called Faith, Hope and Charity. The Flight has lived on, the airplanes have been periodically replaced, and at some point it acquired a fourth aircraft which was christened Desperation. Desperation seems a bit incongruous for a name compared to the original three, but the situation in Malta did get a little desperate, so maybe the name is fitting.
    The Flight is now equipped with Typhoons, aka the Eurofighter. Could not find a photo of the four aircraft together, the best I could do was three (the ones in the photo above). But where's Desperation? Here's one.
