I thought for a horrible moment you were talking about the '80 Jazz-Funk band Shakatak!

 

I was watching a Youtube video about Shackletons the South African air force had, apparently there is still one that crash landed in the Sahara desert on its way to an air show in Europe.

Lol.

 

I've watched quite a few vids on the Shacks, my favourite has to be this one..

 

A Shackleton engine run with a difference.

I was just about to post a link to that.. I bet the base commander wasn't happy.

Looking good, those wing spars look a good way of attaching wings, do they fit well and give the right dihedral ok?

 

Interesting comparison with the MR2.

 Compared to the wing spars on the Airfix Shack's - Revell's are quite malnourished - though they fit very well and look right.

 

Airfix's MR.2 ,may not have the rivets, but is a superior kit by a country mile.
