Supposed to be a fly-past by RAF Tornadoes too at some point!

what relevance do Tornado jets have to the RBS?

In the day to day business of banking probably very little, but they were
all part of the ceremonials for the official opening, I gather. Bit like
when Concorde and the Red Arrows flew across Princes Street on the occasion
of the opening of the Scottish Parliament - all done for maximum fanfare!

I daresay RBS might have had to fund the ceremonials themselves, including
the air show? They've a bob or two!
