MRA4 cancelled and Kinloss to shut...

[PingDit]

Can also remember the weekends in Andoya on MR1s, one hotel (Andrikken?) & one pub (The Viking?), never went dark and great if you like fish! There may have been other odd "fringe benefits" but det rules applyDT_Xtremez_06:

I remember them well. I also remember walking through the 'town' with a mate off the crew and 2 bottles of scotch. We were invited to instant 'parties'. Veeeeery nice!
The Viking bar was great too. Downstairs in the cellar bar you could order a bucket full of king prawns in garlic - only £2 - bargain!

Thing is, the BAE MR4 design and engineering teams are still working, scenario is, it will be finished as a programme, then either sold in full, sold as a platform minus the clever kit or scrapped. Funny old world!

Just like 1970's fridges. Even when they are BER, they cost a shedload to get rid of them..................

(Mind you, I have never had to pay off Zanussi for not buying one)

Just more scaremongering verbal rubbish from Angus Robertson, something that he has rapidly become outstanding at doing.

What a complete and utter waste, this whole sorry episode will come back to haunt us at some point in the future without a doubt DT_Xtremez_21:
