Hey guys!

A new South African produced DVD on Shackleton 1722 was launched last night. It has a whole chapter on WR977 at Newark and an interview with Brian Withers!

Does anybody remember the BBC series "Perpetual Motion". It was about things that had had (at the time) an extended working life. The two programmes I remember were on the Shacketon & Morris 1000.

Henk, if you haven't seen it I can send you a DVD copy on the Shackelton (less the last 3 mins). Just PM me your addy.

Oh yes...have it on Video. There was also another on the DC3 which featured Jimmy Edwards, (who??..ask your Dad :redface: ) who flew them in WWII.

The Shackleton recording dates from 1992, & the Dakota from '94 so your memory it top rate to remember the 'Shack' one
