Here's a couple of shots of the Nimrod from when I saw it in 2023.

Under threat?
The future of Nimrod XV232, which is currently with a preservation group at Coventry airport, has been thrown in to doubt as the group has been given notice to vacate their site by May next year. The aircraft is currently in ground running condition. Hopefully a new home can be found and there are certainly a couple of museums that spring to mind that have space but its a question of money, logistics and practicality for the future. Lets hope there is a good outcome.

Sad to hear . Be nice if they could make room for it at The Midland Air Museum. Fingers crossed it finds a new location but given the fact there are a number displayed in the UK its not looking good considering the road Bruntingthorpe went down including their Victor which there was a big question mark once the airfield came under new ownership.
ReplyDeleteI was hoping it might go to MAM but when you look at an aerial shot of the site there's not an awful lot of room, especially if they want to keep it live. Just hope for a good outcome.
