One point however HRH The Princess of Wales came back in the hold of an aircraft. Before anyone says she was not HRH at that point, I know but in my mind she was.
The VC10 fit though was not a run of the mill, shove it in and strap it down..
I much prefer seeing ordinary members of the public treated this way than some so called VIP simply because their job was in the public eye. After all it is their Air Force as much as the next man or womens, no matter their rank or stature.
