Because of the weather… a “disappointing” modification of the most striking representations of the king’s coronation

With the clouds dropping and rain falling over Buckingham Palace, the air show scheduled for 01:30 GMT has changed.

The ‘modified’ parade will be performed by Royal Air Force ‘Red Arrows’ helicopters and aerobatics.

And a number of social media followers expressed their “disappointment” at the reduction in the expected air show, which was due to be one of the biggest aspects of the celebration in the British capital on Saturday.

On Saturday, King Charles III was crowned King of Britain at Westminster Abbey in the capital, London, in the biggest official ceremony the country has seen in 70 years, and in a ceremony pompous and luxurious dating back a thousand years.

Slowly, Justin Welby, Archbishop of Canterbury, placed the 360-year-old St Edward’s Crown on the king’s head as around 100 heads of state and dignitaries, including the US first lady, looked on. Jill Biden, as well as millions of television viewers.

Charles took over the reign of Britain to succeed his mother, Queen Elizabeth, after her death in September, and at the age of seventy-four he became the oldest British monarch to put that crown on his head and to sit on the throne which dates back to the 14th century at Westminster Abbey. The ceremony also includes the coronation of his second wife Camilla (75).
