Lovely machine, loved walking past her on the way back to the mess when down there in exercise. My Dad used to work on Shackletons at St Eval in the early 50's with 220 Sqn.

I haven't been down to Newquey International for 2 years so diidnt know the Shack had been moved up the hill. How are Kipper Fleet fleet types going to pass the time on the long walk up the hill to the mess from the taxi with no props to move?
