an Avro Shackleton perched above a Sasol service station near Johannesburg, South Africa, formerly known as Vic’s Viking Garage.


The South African Shackleton was brought to its present location in 1987, and in doing so, it played a role in the preservation of another large aircraft that had previously been perched upon the service station, a Vickers Viking airliner, which is now the last of its kind preserved in South Africa.
