russ c Posted November 10, 2015 Share Posted November 10, 2015 Fantastic looking Shackleton there, really nice work. My old man flew as part of the crew on those during his National Service, he was seated at the window near the trailing edge of the wing. I can`t remember what his role was though, Doh !
