For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.I had to pop into work briefly (in East London) on Saturday and had an excellent view from a 5 story building as they flew directly overhead. The fly-past was part of the Trooping the Colour ceremony (something to do with one of the queen's birthdays). I'm no expert on 'planes, but the first to fly past (and the one that caused me to look out of the window) was a Lockheed C-130 'Hercules', followed by, amongst others, an AWACS and a Nimrod, all under fighter escort. Don't know what the fighters were. It's the same thing with cars - "they all look the same nowadays".
