OOoooohhhh... just in time for the new QW BAe 146 RJ !

Hopefully someone will get a Royal RAF livery done for it. Yay, we love our Royals !

As we await the appointment of the new 'Bishop of Rome', our thoughts go out to all those in need, suffering and frightened. Keep the faith.

Saint Peter is returning very shortly, and the world will once again be protected by the spirit of our Lord.

Rushing Home, June 1952 and HRH Princess Elizabeth returns home from Africa after the death of His Majesty King George Vl. She is to crowned and become our Queen. The aircraft is a Canadair Argonaut of BOAC

Queens Flight Stalwart, the HS Andover CC2 served for many years with 32 squadron at RAF Benson as the Royal Flight. It's small size made it ideal for getting into tight airfields(such as those found on some of the Carribean islands and up in Scotland).

Northolt Queen. Since 32 squadron moved to RAF Northolt they have been equipped with the BAe 146-CC2 replacing the aging Andovers. These aircraft carry all sorts of ECMs to prevent guided missile attacks.

Let's see whats out there! !

Very nice indeed ! I love this plane. Is this the PAD BAe ?

Hopefully someone will do the Queen's livery for the new QW release !?

Ooops! Just re-read the rules, I think I have infringed it with this aircraft, as it has never been in the Royal flight. Moderator you can either delete off or leave in but exclude from competition..

James, love the shots but they would not be eligible, you can always edit your post and change them for different shots any time before the competition ends.

Oh dear, a royal flight? That is going to be a tricky one for me...
However...
Supermarine Spitfire IIa P7981 was damaged in august 1941 in an emergency landing in Yorkshire while flying with 145 sqn and struck off charge. Persistent rumors state that the aircraft was subsequently repaired and used by Prince Bernhard of the Netherlands as his personal aircraft until 1944....does that count?

Posted Image

here you see him arriving at No 322 (Dutch) Sqn in 1943..

On 2 November 1977, Queen Elizabeth II travelled for the first time aboard Concorde. Her Majesty then flew from the Sir Grantley Adams International Airport,Barbados, to London Heathrow, England. That occasion was also the first visit by a Concorde aircraft to Barbados. The "Alpha Echo" aircraft which The Queen travelled was the last Concorde to fly supersonic to Barbados on 17 November 2003, as a delivery flight to the Barbados Concorde Experience museum where it remains on display.

Best of luck all.

Does a Royal Pain in The a** qualify? Purchased this two days and still have not had a trouble free flight from takeoff to landing. So many buttons. :wacko2:

The realism and sound is amazing to the point of making me rethink how good of a pilot I thought I was. Humbled is a word that comes to mind.

East of 3W5 Thanks to Jankees for the repaint

Only kidding, I didn't have any Royal aircraft in my hanger. Good luck to this months participants.

Thanks to everyone who entered June's competition.
I guess the subject matter was too obscure? Anyhoo, that makes the winners entry even more impressive to me!

So without further ado I am pleased to announce the winner, with a picture of a Hawker Siddeley Andover CC.2 of the Queens Flight, is Garry Russell

Well done Garry, that aircraft was exactly what I had in my minds eye, well done, check your PM's :thum:
