The Marham Wing Over Sandringham

Previous Up Next

A commemorative edition by Michael Rondot to celebrate the Golden Jubilee Year of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.

At the beginning of her Golden Jubilee Year, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II visited Royal Air Force Marham, the Norfolk airbase close to the Royal Family's winter residence at Sandringham. RAF Marham personnel are very proud of their unique association with Her Majesty who became Honorary Air Commodore of the station in 1976. To mark the occasion of her Golden Jubilee Year this magnificent oil painting was commissioned by all ranks of RAF Marham and presented to Her Majesty.

The aircraft in Michael Rondot's painting represent the five squadrons of The Marham Wing. A Canberra PR9 is portrayed leading four Tornado GR4s, with aircraft tail letters specially marked to spell E II R L for the Golden Jubilee, in a formation flown over Sandringham in Her Majesty's honour. In the background, surrounded by wooded grounds, lawned gardens and 20,000 acres of estate, stands the fine red brick and sandstone house built in 1870 for Prince Edward (later King Edward VII).
