Paphos Shackeltons

Can anyone tell me what happened to the 2 Shacks that were parked up at Paphos airport about ten years ago?

Indeed they are. They're owned by a chap who used to own a flight school there called Phoenix Aviation. The old AEW trainer Shackleton is still there also, behind a new hangar that is being built near the fuel farm. This man also owns the (now wrecks of) G-JETP, a fleet of derelict Grob 115's, a wreck of a B206 and several Cessnas.

Haha I see them now. During my Airtours days you could walk to them from the old apron.
What's the aircraft behind them, anyone know?

Thanks everyone!
