The Red Arrows soar over Admiralty Arch as they perform a flypast at Buckingham Palace for the King's coronation

The Red Arrows say they were proud to represent Lincolnshire when they performed a flypast over Buckingham Palace earlier.

The RAF display team took off from their base, RAF Waddington, at 13:50 BST, and were over London at 14:30 BST.

Sqn Ldr Tom Bould, known as Red 1, said it was "an amazing honour" to perform the flypast, watched by millions around the world.

The Battle of Britain Memorial Flight was grounded due to poor weather.
