None are current, that I know of:-
"Typhoon & Tempest at War," by Arthur Reed & Roland Beamont, ISBN 0 7110 0542 7 Ian Allan 1974
"The Typhoon & Tempest Story," by Chris Thomas & Christopher Shores, ISBN 0-85368-878-8 Arms & Armour Press 1988
"The Hawker Typhoon and Tempest" by Francis K. Mason, ISBN 0-946627-19-3 Aston Publications 1988
"Hawker Typhoon, Tempest and Sea Fury," by Kev Darling, ISBN 1 86126 620-0 Crowood 2003
"Hawker Typhoon cz.2" by Leszek Moczulski, ISBN 83-7237-159-8 a Monografie Lotnicze by AJ Press
Aeroplane Monthly June 2004; Scale Aircraft Modelling 11/1 October 1988; Scale Models Novemner 1975; Warpaint no.5; Profile Publications no.81; Typhoon/Tempest in action no.102.
Hope that's some help; for me "The Typhoon & Tempest Story" is the best.

Hi Mika

I don't have a copy, but there are also the Typhoon pilot's notes available from Crecy Publishing, which should have some useful cockpit shots.

All the best
