Forum commemorates Her Late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II

The Hong Kong Aviation Forum today (8 September) commemorated the life of Her Late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II on the first anniversary of her passing. The Forum expressed its deepest respect and gratitude for Her Late Majesty's lifelong commitment to public service, especially her accomplishments in the aviation industry.


Her Late Majesty was a frequent flyer, utilising aviation technology to fulfil her royal duties. Her Late Majesty's adoption of the then-revolutionary jet-powered aircraft technology marked her as an early adopter. She also travelled on Concorde on multiple historic occasions. In 2014, Her Late Majesty bestowed the honour of 'The Queen's Terminal' on London's Heathrow Terminal 2, a testament to her enduring legacy in aviation.


As a patron of the Royal Aeronautical Society, Her Late Majesty demonstrated an unwavering commitment to the development of aviation. Her profound grasp of aviation's role in uniting people and cultures underscored her steadfast support for the industry. Her visionary leadership played an instrumental role in shaping the aviation sector into the influential global force it represents today.


The Hong Kong Aviation Forum pays tribute to Her Late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and her profound connection with the aviation industry. In commemorating Her Late Majesty's life, we recognise her enduring legacy and the invaluable contributions she made to the advancement of aviation.
