Enroute from Pride in London to Goodwood, probably.

Heavens! Straight and level, and slow I hope. After all, high energy vintage jets and all that...

They flew over Trafalgar Sq with a 'rainbow flag' con trailing for Gay Pride at 4pm, were over Richmond Park at 4.01pm and as mentioned at Goodwood by 4.20pm, the whole time in formation. Out of interest does anyone know why they seem to always transit out of London heading SW after doing a flypast over central London ? Obviously LHR is due west, but the several times i've seen them they do the same route give or take ?

I don't recall any particular route laid down; it probably depends where they're off to next.

I don't think they were truly "contrailing" but had uploaded some different coloured smoke!
