Farewell flypast of several Lockheed Hercules C-130 J, ('J' type aka Super Hercules) aircraft from 47 Squadron, Royal Air Force as they flew over Beverley in East Yorkshire on 14th June 2023. These versatile transport aircraft have been in service with the RAF for 56 years, in various different variants for different roles. Three aircraft flew in low formation at various places of significance around the UK before they are sold on to other countries. Beverley was where 47 Squadron was formed back in 1916, hence the flypast here in East Yorkshire.
