First flown in 1951, this Shackleton initially served 236 OCU as an MR.1A and was then converted to T.4 in 1956 for the MOTU (Maritime Operational Training Unit). Wfu in June 1968, it was earmarked at one stage as a gate guard for Kinloss, but instead was dumped and later scrapped This photo is copyright © Richard Vandervord, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
