The Nimrod itself has potentially many years left especially with the MRA4 programme. The core to this problem is goverment funding in the MOD or lack of! Cost cutting is to blame here, not the aircraft!
Am I alone in thinking that it is somewhat ironic that we are discussing the saving of a Nimrod airframe on the same day when we were told quite categorically that we had it in our collective hands to save one with 14 crew and did not do so?
The McNamara Fallacy might have something to do with it: “Everything must be counted, anything that cannot be counted does not count. Money is easily counted and all too soon money becomes the key for everything.”
How did we sleepwalk into this? We are flying museum pieces and it must stop.:mad:
