Beags the Nimrod is designed as a LRMPA aircraft which it can do nicely without AAR as we used too before the Falklands war. I am sure there are many others who see the whole thing as BS does......If and I say If there were major problems with the aircraft they would not be flying at all. When are all you people going to let the crews get on with thier jobs they are the people who will make a decision on wether to fly or not not you.
