Nimrods visible at Kinloss

Post by np1991 » Tue Feb 23, 2010 6:18 pm

At Kinloss this afternoon the following were sitting on the Nimrod Line:

XV2: 26 (first time I've seen this aircraft after a fuel tank rupture in January) - grey with 40 Years of Nimrod on tail
32 (returned today after repairs from coming off the runway a year ago) - hemp
52 - grey
55 - hemp
60 - hemp

Noted on the old line waiting to get scrapped - XV241 - grey

Noted behind tower - XV254 (missing sections of its tail and fusellage) - hemp

Noted just to the left of the runway (looking from the veiwpoint) - XV244 (doubt this aircraft will fly again) - grey

In the air - XV229 - grey
