Sadly, there was no public farewell in the flying display at this year's Waddington Airshow, but instead the final two operational aircraft were confined to static display, marking the passing of the Nimrod R1 from RAF service. Truly the end of an era.

Not the usual variant of Nimrod to be seen at Kinloss, this being one of just three R1s operated in the ELINT role by Waddington-based 51 Squadron.

This Nimrod has the unique distinction of having existed in all three versions of the aircraft. Built as a MR1 in 1970 it was withdrawn from service at the end of 1983 and converted to MR2 standard, returning to operations in 1985. In 1992 it was placed in storage at Kinloss along with two other MR2's and this could well have been the end of its flying career. However on 16th May 1995 one of 51 Sqn's three R1 (XW666) ditched in the Moray firth and was written off (without injury to the crew). As a result XV249 was brought out of storage and converted to R1 standard as a replacement.
