No idea, but I'm loving the image of His Grace spitting out a mouthful of Diet Coke as, on final approach to LHR, he gazes out the window of his VS metal and sees...a bloody Lancaster! [^]

Posted: 18 Jun 2008, 09:58Actually I quite liked the fact that the Red Arrows were not there. They come out for all occassions and this was meant to be a celebration of the aircraft and aircrew who are flying in combat at the moment.
Great to see them all flying and with the tempo at the moment I was surprised to see so many.
I think the helicoper was there to get a different angle for filming and photos.
