BAe Nimrod AEW3 XZ286, Farnborough airshow, September 1980. Part of the doomed project to replace the Shackleton Airborne Early Warning fleet with converted Comets. The £1 billion project was cancelled in 1986 and Boeing E-3 Sentries bought instead. XZ286 was the only Nimrod AEW3 ever to fly, and this is my only photo.
