DashCaps F-27 photos inspired me ....

They certainly did there time, I sure you must have the Nimrod documentary on your shelf , certainly well worth getting, covers the history from the very beginning with the Comet.

When I stopped at the warehouse selling my artwork I check the video department while waiting for the manager, seems they over stocked and they were in $8 price range.

Just watched it Ian (at work) nothing else to do ..... very interesting, will get it back to you asap.

Definitely one to keep on the shelf, not only for the Nimrod but the entire lineage and Comet history, I knew be one you really like, I did see this one NZTV in the early mid 1990s.

The doco wouldnt happen to be 'Nimrod: The Mighty Hunter" would it? i remember watching that is a kid on the ad free Sundays on TV One.. its a great history of the Comet and Nimrod. I have it somewhere on VHS

Nice shots of rather ugly iteration of the original Comet

That's correct, .. very same doc, ad free TV Sundays .. So so long ago , I also have it on VHS, and unit is still brand new but since Mars liked sleeping on top of it it needs to go in the shop, but you can pick up a copy at your local warehouse as mentioned above at $8 bucks.

That is one variant not covered in the doc , even had an uglier sister with the two radromes each end .. turns out the aircraft was fine but Marconi/GEC could not get the bug's or prices went up on the AWACS system making it farcical and opting for the E3
