SINGAPORE - The "Missing Man" formation by the Republic of Singapore Air Force's Black Knights, one of the most anticipated elements of the State Funeral procession for Mr Lee Kuan Yew, was not performed on Sunday.

Four Black Knights F-16C aircraft were to fly the Missing Man formation to honour the late Mr Lee as the funeral cortege drove pass Esplanade Bridge.
The Straits Times understands that the jets did an aerial flypast above cloud cover, but could not do the formation due to rainy weather and low visibility.
The planes were likely not visible to the crowds who lined the bridge despite the downpour.


A video of Black Knight aircraft doing a Missing Man formation had gone viral on Sunday, but it was recorded at the rehearsal on Saturday, and not at the State Funeral procession.

The 28-second video, which was uploaded on Facebook, received almost 2,000 likes and was shared almost 4,000 times.

Mr Lee embarked on his final journey at 12.30pm from Parliament House to the University Cultural Centre where the State Funeral service was held.

when a leopard dies it leaves behind its skin.

when a man dies he leaves behind his name.

When it rains heavy it means something of the name the man leaves behind?

None of the F-16C aircraft flew past today.
The formation has been cancelled due to fowl weather.
Besides, we won't even be able to see them with the dark clouds and heavy rain.

LKY deserves more glory than some flying planes.

If cannons could fire, why fighter jets could not fly?

You sound like a very senior regular officer.

They could if they wanted to. It will jolly well end up being a real missing man and a real missing plane.

The rain was the perfect setting for the state funeral. Everyone were saying even the heavens cried.

So suck it opposition fools! To u rain ruined the occasion, but the truly smart ones know the rain was a blessing in disguise.

Not trying to say you la genius but didn't you read the reasons given raining so the crowd would not be able to see the planes anyway and the weather probably makes it hard to fly the planes anyway. So these people are wrong la? You are correct it's ok to fly the planes in such rainy weather and why would the person in charged be punished? He can control the weather?
