Throughout a remarkable seven decades, the Royal Air Force has enjoyed unwavering support from Her Majesty and alongside colleagues in the Royal Navy and British Army, we will celebrate our special relationship with our Queen through contributions to the national events planned to mark her Platinum Jubilee.

The planning for these events is underway and we will provide further updates when the Royal Air Force’s involvement is finalised.  We will also suggest ways in which Aviators and members of the Whole Force can get involved with the celebrations at a national level and locally on Stations.

Happy Birthday Your Majesty!
