First flown in August 1953 as an MR.2 and operated by 204, 269, 210, 38 and 205 Sqdns, going back into service with 8 Sqdn following AEW.2 conversion in 1972. Wfu in 1981 and used for crash rescue training at St Mawgan. Refurbished for display in MR.2 configuration as gate guard there in 1989 (my 2011 photo). In 2015 the MoD put the aircraft up for disposal and amid fears of scrapping, a private group crowdfunded its purchase as a charity, dismantled the aircraft and stored it near the site of the Cornwall Aviation Heritage Centre (which has since sadly met its demise) at Newquay

Looking more like an MR.2, this is a tricycle-undercarriage MR.3/3 sitting on its tail at the Manston Central Training Establishment fire school. First flying in August 1958, it was initially used for trials and underwent A&AEE acceptance testing in 1962 before service with 206 and 201 Sqdns. In 1965/6 it underwent Phase III modifications with the addition of Viper turbojets in the outer nacelles, next going to the Kinloss Wing and back to the A&AEE. It was finally despatched to meet its fate at Manston in August 1971

This Shack was first flown June 1953 and operated by 240, 204, 269, 210 and 205 Sqdns before conversion to AEW.2 in 1971/2. Withdrawn from service in July 1991 and stored at Coventry, then delivered as N790WL to the US in September 1994. In December 1997 it was flown from Midland, TX to the Pima Air Museum where it now resides, marking the last ever flight by a Shackleton

First flying in November 1952, this MR.2 operated with 240, 204, 37 and 210 Sqdns before a spell with the A&AEE for altimeter trials. Stored by 5MU Kemble from April 1972 as seen here, it did get to see a further lease of life when issued to 8 Sqdn as a trainer for their AEW.2s in March 1974. Finally struck off in October 1977, it hung on as a gate guard at Lossiemouth but was scrapped in 1991
