Low flying Nimrod over Rickmansworth??
 

Hi,

At about 4ish this afternoon what looked like a Nimrod came straight over my house at probably no more than 2000ft. I live just to the north of Rickmansworth in Herts and it was heading west. Does anyone know what it was doing? Maybe coming out of Northolt? It didnt seem to be climbing.

Cheers

2000' is not low flying for a Nimrod, at least not the MR variant :ok:

MadMark!!! :mad:

It was on a "Romeo" non airways track from Northolt which climbs up to 2000 feet so well judged!

A prize for why it is named a "Romeo" departure!!

(see here if you REALLY wanna know!)

It was saying goodbye to an old friend.

RIP Darren

Cheers guys,

If it was on a Romeo depature then it was well off track to be north of Rickmansworth surely?? That departure track runs just south of Denham!

Anyway, not meaning to be an anorak - just interested!!

Cheers

Oh yeah, AlanM why is it called a romeo departure??!!

R is for Princes Risborough.

Not Rickmansworth......! :)

The other way out is a Charlie departure towards BPK which is a Cheshunt departure, also up to 2000 feet (which it may also of been)
