I used a Cessna Cardinal (177RG) whilst employed on the AEW Comet during the Nimrod Mk3 program. Quite useful really especially when we needed spares
collecting from Elstree. I did approximately 400 hours in two years at the behest of Marconi Elliot. . Bae never allowed it into Woodford so I used Ringway instead.
For recreational purposes,I took it to Malta and Shannon as well.
