Interestingly, at a meeting to discuss engineering aspects of another ex-civil airliner now being used by the military, one of the delegates announced that he'd been told by others that the Nimrod AAR gallery uses single skinned pipes.....

Is that really true?

He said that "They'd considered it an acceptable risk for a military aircraft.....25 years ago when it was installed".
