C-17 part of British queen's Golden Jubilee events
In honor of Queen Elizabeth's Golden Jubilee celebration, the British Royal Air Force is mounting a flypast this afternoon, featuring most of the aircraft types currently in service over Buckingham Palace. A Boeing C-17 Globemaster III from the RAF's 99 Squadron will lead the formation, which also will include a Eurofighter Typhoon and a supersonic Concorde airliner. The formation will travel at 280 knots at a height of 1,500 feet over London, and will take three minutes to fly over the palace.
