A distant port side view of a Netherlands Air Force Lockheed Neptune P2V-7B maritime reconnaissance aircraft in flight off the Shetland Isles, seen from on board the Royal Navy offshore patrol vessel Orkney (1976) which was patrolling the U.K. 200 nautical mile economic exclusion zone in the North Sea. The aircraft is from 320 Squadron, has the letter V on the tail fin and her code number seems to be 215 or 216. There is slight image movement.
