No doubt a lot of you will have sat and watched the Coronation last Saturday. The RAF did a flypast at the end and you will have see the helicopters flying over in the low cloud. Once the Red Arrows flew past that was the end of the RAF flypast
At least I thought it was, 20 min's later I heard a low flying Helicopter and looking out the kitchen window I watched the lead Helicopter flypast low enough to see the pilot. By the time I ran to get my iphone and bumping into my wife only to miss the Apache's just getting two as the flew away
I did get the next two and the last Apache flying over
I got the last helicopter flying past but missed one that had done a circuit. The helicopter's are based at a couple of military bases nearby
As it is Skywatch I will leave you with this shot I captured with a wild life camera
Happy Skywatch

The last one is hilarious. 😂
Nice shots of the helicopters. I still love seeing military helicopters flying around. We have a lot from our local national guard flying around doing whatever they do. The nutjobs say that our President is trying to intimidate the local populace.
Me again, I love the last shot. I live for candid shots from my trail cam.
Exciting to see the helicopters. That last photo is amazing!
Great photos! I wasn't able to watch the coronation live as it was 3 AM in my part of the world but I did see reviews afterward.
Coverage of the coronation started where I live at 5am, so I DVRd it and watched here and there over the next couple of days. I love this type of history and I would have enjoyed the helicopters, too. That bird, too! Wonderful final photo.
That last photo is so beautiful.What kind of bird is that? You caught it at such a great moment.
Typical grey sky.
I've seen a large scale fly past here in 2017 with the 150th anniversary of the country being founded.
Your own private fly past. It was a pity the weather prevented the full flypast.
Made me smile
I wonder about the ammount we see
you are right there
I see them every day flying over
At least you saw it
Pity the weather was no good I thing there would have been more
Bit like today
I've not seen one in a while
Yes though we only had part of it fying back to base, The Cinooks went elsewhere
Some people call them flying rats but it's a pigeon
The school I worked at was near the Imperial War Museum at Duxford and from time to time the Red Arrows flew over as they prepared for an air show,
Lovely to have them flying past you :)
All the best Jan
I have not seen the coronation, but will catch it on youtube.
