Ms Larhlid wrote on her fundraising page: "She was an inspiration to many generations, devoting herself to service for 70 years."
She added that she believed "in the power of remembrance and appreciation in times like these" and wanted to make the flight to pay her respects to the late monarch.Image source,Ms Larhlid planned her route by converting a portrait of the Queen into a format recognised by a flight planning programme called ForeFlight.
She also had a manual back-up of the route made using landmarks, and flew multiple practice flights to get the feel for the required track and turns. Parts of the flight path took her through restricted air space and she had to stay in touch with air traffic control throughout. She told Flightradar24 she had to stay "laser focused on the track" but the challenge was "great fun".Follow BBC London on
Thank for your tremendous inspiration.
I don’t understand the obsession! She is NOT God.
Oh god the carbon obsessed will be out in force!
Oh please stop publishing this rubbish and start actually reporting the news please
A great gesture.
Same question, what's the point?
Remember this when king sausage fingers cried about the environment
Wonder how Charles and William feel about this what with their green worries?!
God bless the queen.
Oh how we miss her….
Climate changes isn't a thing anymore bbc or only when he suits you
seems like a good use of resources.
HRH_William_ Wow AMAZING 👏❤️❤️❤️
The wonderful bbc report thus but cannot report how much the royals day out cost in a local basis during a cost of living crisis. Allegedly the visits to a hospital, football centre and NI cost 440k. Report it.
Omfg what a waste of bandwidth
Sure it's nothing compared with the aftermath caused by Ukraine war and extra coal to be burnt to cover energy crisis
All the comments about fuel 😂 Probably used as much as a long car journey
and you expect people to believe there's a climate emergency and that somehow CO2 is a pollutant. lmfao
What an obscene waste of fuel ($)...unless Chuck paid for that since he isn't paying a penny of that inheritance tax.
She is Dead,
Even the Queen would have found this a ridiculous waste.
Curious to know when this was done as can’t find it on FR24 🤔
GrieveWatch
Bless.
Isn't there a fuel crisis going on; I thought we were talking about three hour winter blackouts this week
He’s literally begging for war
Waste of fuel
Someone needs a life, what a waste of fuel. Must have a sad existence to waste your time doing this shite. AbolishTheMonarchy
'Ms Larhlid wrote on her fundraising page' She did fundraising to pay for this waste of fuel?!?!
Facing the wrong way.
Why?
How much fossil fuels did that ridiculous task use
I knew I lived with nut jobs in the UK but this is truly embarrassing.
Biggest waste of fuel since Prince Andrew decided to fly to America to tell convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein he 'couldn't be friends with him' instead of using a phone
But cows are bad for the environment
No cost of living problems there then……….
She’s facing the wrong way. 🤨🇬🇧
gtconway3d He could have rode Prince Albert instead. More ecofriendly…and way funnier!

That’s amazing
Someone was paid to write an article about this; and it was posted as News. Licence Fee etc etc. Jubus wept.
what a waste of fuel! what about your impact on climate change
Waste of money , fuel , and time
Jeeezuz Wept
Ffs
At the same time the BBC is publishing articles like: 'Can't afford to cook a potato? Here's how to eat them raw.' 'Worried about freezing to death this winter? Why not skin your pets and sleep inside them?'
More pollution
WOW!!!!
I could draw that in 4 seconds and save a lot of fuel.
gtconway3d This is awesome! I wonder how many hours it took the pilot to figure out how to plot this out. Impressive flying.
So much for climate change. Stupid story
💜
What a waste of time and fuel !
Of all the news stories you could have reported, you chose this one
monarchy propaganda is part of BBC job
HRH_William_ Waste of money
What a waste.
What a waste of fuel, money and time.
Yeah but that's only cool on a map, right?
What a waste of jet fuel…
Nothing ridiculous about calling this news whatsoever 🙄
Idiots.
What a waste of fuel.
Wonderful! How is it some humans can be so brilliant while others can be as menacing as Elon Musk?
Not gonna lie, this is pretty cool 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Ok....
...releasing how much CO2 into the air?
🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
Absolute madness
Don’t tell greenpeace
Carbon prints
GodIsPEACEnLUV iT'S WHAT SHE WOulD hAVe WAntED™
gtconway3d Pointlessly burning fossil fuel and pouring pollutants into the air for two hours to make an imaginary outline of the queen's profile. I will never understand people. They are all goofy.
That’s a lot of effort for ‘one’s tribute !’. 👑
Why?
Hey pilot. Go out more. Talk to people. Read books.
