Queen’s Birthday Flypast: Tornado, Hurricane and Typhoon some of the RAF aircraft on parade

By: Jessica Morris

Unfortunately bad weather grounded most of the aircraft scheduled to take part in the Queen's birthday fly past, with the RAF saying only its helicopters and Red Arrows would be taking part in the event.

Among those that didn't make it into the skies were the Typhoon fighter jets, as well as the commerical carrier-like Voyager.

Aviation nuts were not doubt disappointed about being deprived of the opportunity to see their favourite aircraft in action – however we've put together a list of all of the aircraft which should've been on show today.
