A huge portrait of the Queen was created by pilot Amal Larhlid, with crown stretching all the way from Milton Keynes to Warwickshire.
A pilot has taken to the skies to draw the World’s Largest Portrait of the Queen in a bid to raise money for Hospice UK.
"People from around the globe came together to mourn and remember Her Late Majesty the Queen. She was an inspiration to many generations, devoting herself to service for 70 years," Pilot Amal Larhlid explains in her fundraiser.
"I do believe in the power of remembrance and appreciation in times like these, and I’ll be flying the portrait of Her Late Majesty to pay my respect. She will always be in our hearts, and so will our loved ones who left us too."
Pilot Amal Larhlid took the two hour flight in her Piper PA-28 and covered 413 kilometers in total, creating the 105 km tall and 63 km wide portrait.

“As an ambassador for Hospice UK I wanted to raise money for an organization that does important work and pay respect to a symbol of service and selflessness,” she told Flightradar24.
According to Flightradar24, the pilot practiced for her flight and planned her route manually using landmarks for backup.
Amal is now 1/5 away from her goal of raising £5,000.
