Here is the latest report on Nimrod from QinetiQ dated 17th Feb 2009
http://www.mod.uk/NR/rdonlyres/95A1F...rveyReport.pdf

A letter sent to all the families on the 6th March 2009 from Bob Ainsworth saying there were no airworthiness issues in this report and yet QinetiQ counted 26 !!!!. However the IPT mitigated 11 and the other 15 will be done at there next maintainence.(For some that is two years).
