D-Day fly past 5/6/1994

[ukaviation]

Hi All

Looking back through old logs ive noticed I never managed to tie up any of the aircraft that took part in the 5/6/1994 d-day flypast.

If anybody can help me with serials of the aircraft that actually participated in the flypast it would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Andrew
