This Shackleton is based at Ysterplaat Air Force Base in Cape Town, South Africa. It has only 75 hours left that it can safely fly so opportunities are limited to see it in action. Today it was only up for about 10 minutes. See www.shackletonproject.co.za/saaf5.html for more information on SAAF Shackletons.

See my videos of it flying at www.youtube.com/watch?v=5WX0EaD3f3E and at www.youtube.com/watch?v=EQpLgI8bbUY.
