I missed this the first time through but found it at the mention of the RAF's 100th. No body can hold a candle to the Brits when they put on a parade! And that 100 plane flight? Wowsers!

FYI: "High Flight" at 1:09:10 (American Pilot & Author John Gillespie MaGee Jr. - Pilot Officer RCAF 1922-41)

100 plane (& rotary) flyby at 3:28:43

Just watched a documentary on the Canberra (B-57) light jet bomber. Quite an aircraft.
