VJ Day celebrations in London on the 5th August 1995, TV footage , includes Lancaster poppy drop.
This is some TV footage I recorded onto VHS tape of the VJ Day celebrations in London on the 5th August 1995.
Great footage of the day , highlight for me is the Poppy Drop by the Lancaster over The Mall.
The Queen was joined by members of the Royal Family as she presided over a series of commemorations marking the 50th Anniversary of VJ (Victory in Japan) Day on this day in 1995, marking the 50th Anniversary of the end of the Second World War, a few months after the VE Day 50th Anniversary events. Following a ceremony at Horse Guards Parade the previous evening, the Royal Family attended a Service and Parade outside Buckingham Palace with a flypast including aircraft such as -
Spitfire
Hurricane
Firefly
Lancaster performing a Poppy drop down The Mall
C-130
Harrier
E-3 AWACs
Tornado
Tristar
Jaguar
VC-10
Nimrod
Chinook
Hawks - in a '50' formation.

    13:50 - That 767-200 (N644UA) is still in service with United as of today, April 2024. It is now 33 years old and was delivered to United brand new May 1991. 18:54 - That 767-200 (N615UA) retired from the United fleet in 2003 (at age 20) and is still stored in Victorville, California with many components removed. 21:40 - That 737-300 (N392UA) was delivered to United 4 years before this video. It left United and went to ATA Airlines after 15 years of service in 2005. Two years later, it went to Lithuania for a couple years flying charter flights, then to Estonia for more charter flights, then went to SCAT Airlines in Kazakhstan in 2009. One month later, it caught fire while parked at the airport and was destroyed. 22:49 - That 747-200 (G-VGIN) was Virgin Atlantic's second 747 to enter the fleet in 1986. She was 15 years old after already flying for National Airlines and China's CAAC. She served with Virgin for another 15 years before being sold off to Nigeria's Kabo Air. She served with Kabo Air for 6 years, and then was retired and stored in the Mojave Desert in 2007. She has since been scrapped. 23:30 - That 747SP (N147UA) was originally sold to Pan Am in 1978. Then, 8 years later is was acquired by United Airlines in 1986. She served with United until 1986 (15 years) and was then retired and preserved Apr 2001, at the FAA William J. Hughes Technical Center for research purposes. Given the time and place of this video, I believe this video is this plane returning to SFO after making the long SYD-AUK-HNL-SFO flight. Search 39°27'33.93"N 74°33'26.89"W on google maps to see it.
