It is noted that the translation planes of Rao and Rao may be constructed from a Desarguesian plane by the replacement of a set of disjoint derivable nets. Their plane of order 25 which admits a collineation group splitting the infinite points into orbits of lengths 18 and 8 may be obtained by replacing exactly three disjoint derivable nets and may be viewed as being derived from the Andre nearfield plane of order 25.
