The footage in the clip is taken from the Lancaster bomber, through the Lancaster's famous perspex nose cupola, a clear portion of the nose of the plane which was originally used by bomb aimers.

The clip shows the four prop plane flying down The Mall towards Buckingham palace.

A second angle, from the rear of the plane, between the rear guns is then show, with a spitfire just below, followed by a wing camera angle, showing the spitfires flying in close formation.
