This Nimrod MR.2 made the final RAF Nimrod MR.2 flight on May 26, 2010 when it was flown from RAF Kinloss to Manston International Airport in Kent where it was then moved to the Defence Fire Services Central Training Establishment area for use as a fire evacuation and breathing apparatus training aircraft.
