    Hi,

    31 Aug 1997

    A BAe 146 (The captain Sqn Ldr G. Laurie) of No. 32 (The Royal) Squadron returned to RAF Northolt from Paris with the body of HRH Diana The Princess of Wales, who had been killed in a motoring accident.

    Her coffin was borne from the aircraft by members of the Queen's Colour Squadron of the Royal Air Force.
