I thought you meant the job that they did getting her to the Hearse. (Which was a great team job!) I didn't look at the inverted number! Yes, Clever!

Re: Clever RAF

There were discussions with the late Queen about the choice of air transport to bring the body back to Noltholt/ London.

Apparently there were concerns from government about using a C17 for such an occasion.

The Queen simply replied "if it's good enough for our troops its good enough for me"
The true measure of a remarkable monarch..

Sure, The number on the aircraft, if you turn it upside down spells LIZ.
And BTW, What a superb job those carrying and transferring the coffin did. Millions and millions of people around the world watching, and every move was done with absolute precision. Well done those men!

Agreed, I was on the edge of my seat watching the orb and sceptre rocking backwards and forwards, not realising it was attached firmly [Thumb_up.png]
