We decided to camp near Bruggen/Wildenrath for a week: we just had bad weather. Fortunately the Friday afternoon gave a bit of sunshine and a real Shackleton. This made up for the whole week!

Now preserved in the super Museum of Science and Industry in Manchester. This Shackleton was built at Woodford in 1954 and served with various squadrons in a martime reconnaisance role. In 1972 she was converted to fulfill an AEW role and named 'Dougal' (can you spot him?) as all 8 Sqn aircraft were named after characters in either The Magic Roundabout or Herb Garden.

A sight that the later custodians of this Shack, Air Atlantique Classic Flight, probably dreamt of seeing at Coventry. But it wasn't to be, and in 2024 it was dismantled, then transported to the Yorkshire Air Museum at Elvington in early 2025
