Nimrod MR Mk2 Review of Hot Air System

The Ministry of Defence commissioned this report in January 2008 in response to the Board of Inquiry report into the loss of Nimrod XV230 which recommended that a safety review of the Nimrod hot air system be completed. The mitigation measures currently in place for the operation of the hot air system in flight, together with the hot air ducts replacement programme will ensure we can continue to operate the Nimrod aircraft safely until its planned retirement from service.
