At my home here near Boston in the U.S., I watched the wonderful Battle of Britain flypast at today’s Royal Wedding. I was more choked up over the Lancaster, Spitfire, and Hurricane formation than the wedding itself! YouTube already has a 38-second video of the WWII part of the flypast. Try this link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ajorLvEIPDU If the link somehow doesn’t work, search “Battle of Britain fly past of royal wedding.”

Great site today over THe Mall !!!
Ok…from the colonies….. wonderful ceremony today..like millions of others from around the globe watched in full wonderfu HD…… so glad the RAF BBM flight was part of the ceremony….a real tribute to that generation that gave us all the freedom to watch this wedding. Your nation does pomp & ceremony like no other. What a great site to see & hear today as the BBM flight flew over the masses with those lovely Merlins humming along !!!! Wish they could have put up about 25 Spits & Hurricanes flying down from Duxford in a massive FLYPAST to salute the newly wed couple………. the bride looked stunning & all the best to them. I salute the prince for his service as well as his younger brother ! Great history made today… all the best to them !
A salute from BlueNoser352!
