EDITORS COMMENTS
In a breathtaking display of honor and celebration, 31 aircraft took to the skies above Buckingham Palace and the Mall during Her Majesty's official 90th Birthday Celebrations. This remarkable print captures the essence of this momentous occasion. As part of these festivities, 15 different types of aircraft showcased their prowess in the air, creating an awe-inspiring spectacle for all who witnessed it. What makes this flypast even more extraordinary is that five squadrons participating in this event were also commemorating their own centenary milestone. Starting precisely at 1pm, eight elements comprising two to nine aircraft each gracefully soared through the sky, leaving behind trails of admiration and pride. The diverse fleet included helicopters, fast jets, World War II planes evoking nostalgia from a bygone era, as well as modern marvels like the Voyager and C-17 transporter. And let us not forget the iconic Red Arrows with their mesmerizing aerobatic maneuvers that left spectators spellbound. This image encapsulates not only a historic moment but also showcases the incredible capabilities and dedication of our Royal Air Force (RAF). It serves as a testament to their unwavering commitment in safeguarding our nation's skies while paying tribute to our beloved Queen on her special day.
