Was there a flypast for the service today?
The reason I ask is that I was doing some work just south of Leicester around 1320 hrs today when I heard a powerful jet noise.
First was a Nimrod followed at approx 1 minute intervals by a GR4,F3, Typhoon and a Harrier which was a bit further south east.
I guess the aircraft were at about 500 ft with the Nimrod having a job to stay visual with the ground, speed I guess around 300 knots.
I have seen many aircraft flying low level over the years south of Leicester but this was a first with a Nimrod, I immediately thought of the service in Staffordshire.
