Very sad.

It sounds quite odd to me to say "King" Charles.

I've been following the news on her funeral procession.
She will sorely be missed.

FlightRadar24 is planning on doing a live YT feed of her last flight, from Edinburgh to London (RAF Northolt) - stream has started, but the actual flight is due at about 18:00 (UK time - it's currently 16:00, so 2 hours to go)

Flight tracking statistics regarding the final flight of Queen Elizabeth II
In the minute after the transponder of C-17 ZZ177 activated, an unprecedented 6 million people attempted to follow the flight. This unfortunately impacted the stability of our platform.
We enabled additional platform stability controls to limit the rate at which we added new users to the site.

Over the course of the flight 4.79 million people followed a portion of the flight, and we processed 76.2 million requests related to the flight.

70 years after her first flight as Queen aboard the BOAC Argonaut “Atalanta,” Queen Elizabeth II’s final flight is the most tracked flight in Flightradar24 history.

Looking at the unbelievable and amazing Royal Queues, even in death she brings many warmly together.

RIP

May her positive influence reign on in King Charles!
