Back on thread - although 10 GE, as a ground branch bod I passed-out on the 9 GE parade (not literally!). I remember the formation flypast (whilst still looking ahead I could just see it from under my SD hat brim) and it looked perfect - the family (including my ex-RAF dad) were most impressed. I just hope our line up below was as good.
Now, somewhere I have a photo of the 9GE flypast. Sorry but I wasn't actually looking at the parade, so can't say whether your line up was straight!

I was told by a chum who'd been there a year before me that a somewhat lively evening had been held at the George, involving a stripper....

After news of the event filtered up to the squirearchy, han hinvestigation was held.
Which contributed, directly or indirectly, to the end of a once promising career. Well he said it was promising, but not many agreed so perhaps the outcome was for the best.
