Military aircraft from past and present rehearse coronation flypast

Aircraft from across the UK Armed Forces flew over RAF College Cranwell in a rehearsal for King Charles III's coronation flypast.
The flypast will take place over Buckingham Palace on Coronation Day, Saturday 6 May 2023.
More than 30 aircraft representing the Royal Navy, British Army and Royal Air Force took to the skies to practise the formations which will form part of the coronation celebrations.

    68 aircraft ? In 1990 it was 168 and in 1953 it was over 600. Another 10 years and it'll be a couple of drones and a guy on a bicycle. Edit:- Having seen some of the replies here, please let me point out I didn't say it was a bad thing that numbers have fallen, just pointing it out. Also thought that with "the guy on a bicycle" ppl would realise that it was a bit of a tongue in cheek comment. I guess some people are so stuck up their own arses they dont or cant realise.

    Those six f35 fighters are about a quarter of all the f35 Britain has. The total order is 44 aircraft but the rest will be delivered is a while. When the eurofighter has to retire those 44 f35 fighters will be it, because the 6th gen fighter tempest isn't going to be out for many years. Fighters normally take about twenty years to develop before they go into production.
