Stansted, 17th & 18th September (VIP arrivals)

Post by andygolfer » Mon Sep 26, 2022 8:07 am

Following the sad death of HM the Queen, a sizeable number of VIP flights arrived at Stansted bringing in people for the funeral on the 19th, These are some that I photographed, there were a few biz jets amongst them of which I couldn't be sure if they were funeral connected, apologies if I've got them wrong. a few had military registrations and some had military titles with civil registrations (like the first one), it confused me at times!

these three arrived on the evening of the 17th

Lovely stuff Andy, for some reason I especially like that Saudi 73, smart looking scheme. Korean 748 is a treat too, interesting choice of font on the "Korea" title?!
