To curry favour with airlnes & the public, The Queen’s flight is supplied with the Bristol Belvedere & Fairey Rotodyne.

Thinking the Queen & possibly, the PM too, are on board, Intelligence believed the IRA were planning to shoot the Belvedere down so the Flight was equipped with a heavily armoured & armed Belvedere Gunship as a decoy.  The pilot was trained to release smoke & spiral down as if hit enabling him to spot the offenders & target them.

For The Queen’s visit to Tasmania in 2000 (yes, she did come here), a Launceston tram was specially decked out …..

Robomog:
Like the Rotodyne !

(Thinks: why didn't I think of that !)

1963 Royal Tour of New Zealand

The end of the Royal Tour of New Zealand of 1963 saw the royal party in Dunedin.  To travel back to Auckland, before travelling on to Australia, the royal party were flown in an RNZAF C-54 Skymaster.  As part of the RNZAF tribute, two Sabre Mk6s of 14 Squadron escorted the C-54.




After staying overnight in Auckland, the royal party departed for Sydney aboard one of TEAL’s new Boeing 707s.
