One hundred days after the RAF’s official 100th birthday on 1 April, the RAF marked its centenary on the 10th July 2018 in a day of national celebrations. The celebrations culminated in a sensational flypast of 100 aircraft, including 22 Typhoon jets in an iconic ‘100’ formation. Over 1,000 RAF servicemen and women performed a ceremonial parade on The Mall in central London, along with almost 300 personnel lining the route, including people from a variety of roles and RAF stations, representing the full diversity of the current Air Force. Her Majesty the Queen honoured the RAF with the presentation of a new Queen’s Colour at a ceremony on the forecourt of Buckingham Palace.
