I wasn't overly happy with most of my Tornado shots because of problems with the weather conditions on the day, however from looking at other's threads there doesn't seem much love shown to the Whirlwind, so here's a few from me.

Whirlwind hits Cosford

Really like the black and white Hurricane shot..
Thanks, the Whirlwind was one of the main reasons that I made the trip to Cosford, I'd been wanting to see it since I saw it depart in the distance at one of the Waddington airshows. Hopefully the weather will be good for Yeovilton with it performing late in the display when the light is more favourable.

Thanks for the comments!
I'm glad the Whirlwind owners have resisted the urge to add a couple of eyes on the front
