Perhaps there was some enthusiast on a rooftop or high-up apartment who filmed it all as the flypast flew past and will be kind enough to post it on YT or similar. Did anyone else have a good view ?
BBC coverage was cr@p as usual.
Welsh twit of a commentator didn't know what some of the aircraft were (said the C17/A400 were a Poseidon and Rivet Joint) and the shots from the ground were very badly filmed although the one or two from the air were OK.
