Yozzer. Whilst ex-pointy jet myself, I have deep respect for the kipper fleet. My first QFI was ex-Nimrod. Flew in one to see Affil from the other side. Always remember 13 crew looking out the windows calling 'tally's. And when one Sgt said "There's another one in the 9 oclock high as well now, what do we do?". The Captain replied "we're f#cked, we die".
Anyway,back on thread, do we not now have a new use for the Nimrod? You could get a lot of beer bottles in that bomb bay
