King's Birthday Flypast

Post by Time Machine » Sat Jun 17, 2023 5:19 pm

Similar request to Spooky47 and for the same reason.
I saw a gaggle of Typhoons just north of the Newbury area heading west, three sets of three. Not long after there was a Voyager heading for Brize; followed by an A400 then a C-17 heading towards London.
If anyone knows the serials it would be much appreciated.

Hi, the Voyager was ZZ336, think the A400 was ZM407 and the C17 was ZZ177. Cannot yet help with any Typhoon serials.

the only 2 I have checked from photos so far are the two that accompanied the P-8 (ZP803), they were ZK319 and ZK332, i'll go through my 'C R' photos to see if I can get them but I'm sure some lists have been posted somewhere

Does anyone know which of the Typhoons were Cobra flight and which were Warlord? I only saw Cobra flight and wanted to know what the serials of just that flight were.
