>>1161545Jesus fucking christ are you some kind of anti brexit soy boy or something?! The top generals in the country wrote a scathing letter to parliament which called the retirement of the program "perverse."
http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-12294766Idk about the other accidents, probably caused by lack of funding for maintenance, but in no way are they related to what happened with comet I.. DO THE NIMRODS HAVE SQUARE WINDOWS ANON!??!?!?!? HMMMMMMMMMMM MAYBE YOU ARE TALKING OUT OF YOUR FUCKING ARSE!
The nimrods were excellent aircraft and, if nothing else, FUCKING BEAUTIFUL AND INTERESTING TO LOOK AT!
The decision to scrap the fucking fleet really was fucking ridiculous because the gov spent more money scrapping than just keeping the airframes, and finishing them would have not cost that much compared to the measly 2 billion they saved over 10 years even though THEY ALREADY SPENT 4 BILLION.
CLASSIC CASE OF BULLSHIT AUTHORITARIANISM, FAILURE OF DEMOCRACY, AND CORRUPTION THAT IS INHERENT TO ALL BUREAUCRACY! I'm not a fan of militarism or taxation even but shredding aircraft for political reasons and basically to stop future possibilities of finishing the program MAKES ME SICK AS AN AVIATION FAN AND SOMEONE WHO HATES BULLSHIT AUTHORITARIAN CORRUPTION AND POLITICAL HORSE SHIT! They literally tore those beauties apart just because they didnt want the political possibility of reinstating the program. Those politicians should be fucking forced to resign for doing something as egotistical and infantile as that stunt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
IF YOU ARE ACTUALLY HAPPY THEY CUT UP A BUNCH OF BEAUTIFUL AIRCRAFT YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELF AND YOU ARE NOT A REAL AVIATION FAN AND YOU SHOULD GET THE FUCKKKKKK OFF OF /N. YOU ARE JUST JEALOUS BECAUSE YOU SIT AT HOME ALL DAY AND HAVE NEVER FLOWN JACK SHIT EXCEPT YOUR OWN JOYSTICK!!!!!!
