The formation flying was excellent and, having been very closely involved with several other major flypasts, I am also very well aware of all the hard work by the groundcrews, ATC and other agencies that made the event so impressive. All credit to them, but it's the great British public who are poorly served by our public service broadcaster, who HAVE done it well in the past (more recently than Richard Dimbleby, who I don't remember commentating on any flypast, even the 1953 Odiham one) but who seem no longer to care about accuracy - a disservice to those who worked hard today to produce the spectacle that it was.
