EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a momentous occasion as two Royal Air Force VC-10 tanker/transport aircraft soar gracefully over the iconic Buckingham Palace. The RAF, in honor of Her Majesty The Queen's Birthday, orchestrated an awe-inspiring flypast on June 12th, 2010 at precisely 1:00 pm. The sky was adorned with a magnificent display of power and history as a total of 30 aircraft took part in this grand spectacle. Among them were legendary World War II Spitfire, Hurricane, and Lancaster planes alongside modern multi-role Typhoon fighters and the renowned Red Arrows aerobatic display team. Notably, the inclusion of the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight (BBMF) paid tribute to the historic battle's 70th anniversary. As they approached Buckingham Palace, each formation element maintained altitudes ranging from 1,300 feet to 1,500 feet. With precision timing and impeccable coordination, it took merely three minutes and forty seconds for this breathtaking procession to sweep across the palace grounds. This photograph immortalizes not only the sheer magnificence of these flying machines but also serves as a testament to the unwavering dedication and expertise exhibited by members of the Royal Air Force.
