PM me if you do...  Thanks.

I've got a signed print of Nimrod XV230 by Crew 7 and Crew 5 of 120 and 201 squadrons respectively.  It was autographed  at the Dayton International Airshow 1989.  This aircraft was lost in Afghanistan in 2006 (not by hostile fire).  It was out of RAF Kinloss (now closed).  I didn't realize it had gone down with all crew (3) until today.  I'd like to get it back into someone's hands that have a tie to that aircraft.

My Dad was stationed at Kinloss. Next time I see him I'll ask him if he recalls the Nimrod.

Nimrods were in service at Kinloss from at least 1970 and were operational until around 2010.  Squadrons deployed were 120, 201, and 206.

Sorry I thought you were talking about neckwear. In which case I think I do.
