Don't forget the newly arrived Nimrod MR2

[Dab of oppo]

I assumed everyone knew about the Nimrod, the VC10's are not part of the collection and are just being broken, therefore one being on display minus its engines is a nice bonus!
The Nimrod will be static tommorow due to red tape.

bks.

Sitting here having had an op on my Achilles and unable to get to the kitchen, let alone what is likely to be a bloody good day out

Shame the Nimrod won't be running.

Thanks for sharing Ian, looks like you had a good day and the weather was kind!

Seen some photos on UKAR, Shame they have painted the Victor in a shade of pink, rather than the correct hemp.
