Thanks for all the comments.
nice shots there who operates eastern airways
It’s leased from Cirrus Airways to fly the NCL-LCY.
By the way, that Nimrod doesn’t look like an MR4 to me. The engines don’t look round enough, and I’m sure there’s a ram air intake on the tail fillet of the MR4.
I agree with you on that,Lance.
