And this was only 6 weeks after the almost as impressive Coronation flypast.
A lot less aircraft, 144 R.A.F. Meteors and 24 R.C.A.F. Sabres and unlike current royal flypasts that approach Buckingham Palace flying along The Mall from East to West, the Coronation flypast flew South to North. The run-in started at Bexhill-on-Sea on the the coast, then Biggin Hill, Westminster/St. James’s Park, Regent's Park and then broke up to go home.
This meant that the assorted coronet wearing royals on the Buckingham Palace balcony must have been like the crowd on the side-lines at Wimbledon: eyes right-left; right-left; right left and so on until all 168 aircraft had passed.
