‘If it is good…’: When the Queen was advised about plans to fly her physique in aircraft | World News

Queen Elizabeth II’s respect for the Armed Forces was obvious in her heartwarming reply to an officer when the monarch was advised about plans to repatriate her, a workers officer advised Mirror.

The web site mentioned in a report that the unique plan if the Queen had been to die abroad was to carry her again to the UK aboard a small plan BAe 146.

The plan was scrapped as difficulties had been confronted throughout the repatriation of Princess Diana in September 1997.

The brand new plan in place included the Queen to be flown residence aboard the Royal Air Power's C17 Globemaster plane - which is how she returned to London final week from Scotland.

Employees Officer Pete Morgan advised Mirror: “I by no means met Her Majesty The Queen, however after I was a workers officer in 2009, I used to be tasked with reviewing and rewriting the Operation Overstudy plans, which element how we might repatriate her physique if she died abroad."

When the approval was sought from the monarch, she mentioned touchingly, “If it is ok for my boys, then it is ok for me."

World leaders and members of European royal households are in London to bid farewell to Britain's longest-serving monarch Queen Elizabeth II. Queen Elizabeth II's state funeral might be UK's first in over half a century.
