This is the former South African Air Force 1723. The successor to Vic de Villiers' Viking, that left the roof in 1987 and ended up in the SAA museum. First flown in February 1958 and on the way to Ysterplaat within a few days. Eventually grounded by late 1977, having expended her fatigue life. On display here initially in original SAAF colours, later red as well as canary yellow and in the shown livery since at least 2010.

This looks like some sort of HDR processing but it is not; the paint was apparently treated in an unorthodox way. License-built by Atlas and a museum piece since October 2003.

The former WJ617 was built in 1954 and transferred from the RAF to South Africa in 1964. Final flight in March 1989 and preserved at this base since 1996. Sadly, protecting it from the elements has led to the painting over of all markings.
