So many armchair warriors talking about how it should have been this or that - it was a great flypast of all our service types (minus the hawk for a specific reason) and some fantastic warbirds along the Canberra foreshore so people could gather along the the lake and watch.
As for the parade, I doubt many here have had to plan an event during COVID... The fact that people were able to gather is a relief let alone planning a parade that could be cancelled at any moment.
The event was marked on the RAAF birthday date, at the house of the Queen's representative in Australia for the presentation of her new colour during a global pandemic, with 150 odd members on parade. I think all things considered it was a successful day.
