The pride of Britain's liner fleet RMS Queen Elizabeth 2 graced the Dutch port of Rotterdam with its presence on Friday, dropping into Europe's biggest harbour just in time for the Red Bull Air Race this weekend. Red Bull Air Race pilots Nigel Lamb and Steve Jones of Britain and Hungary's Peter Besenyei greeted the royal vessel with a championship of passes from a respectable altitude of 1,000 feet. With a "smoke on" salute, the British-led formation paid their respects to the QE2 anchored at the Rotterdam dock right next to the Red Bull Air Race track and the Erasmus Bridge. The 963-foot long vessel arrived in Rotterdam from its home in Southampton in Southern England on Friday morning.
