The Avro Shackleton, designed by Roy
Chadwick was a development of the Avro Lincoln which itself
was inspired by the more famous Avro Lancaster. The Shackleton
is Powered by 4 Rolls Royce Griffon engines which turn huge
Contra-rotating propellers, the sound of which give it the
nickname ‘Growler’.
WR963 was first flown on 11th
March 1954 and has served under many squadrons and performed
several roles including maritime reconnaissance and AEW
(Airborne Early Warning).
The Shackleton Aviation
Group are now the custodians of this former RAF Shackleton.
Their goal is to return the aeroplane to the skies as a flying
memorial to all Shackleton units and personnel that served
between 1949 and 1991. They hold many open days throughout the
year at their home base, Coventry Airport. This picture was
taken during an evening photoshoot. The airport fire service
were coincidently undertaking a training session which
contributed an orange glow to the sky.
