A repaint for the Black Square Analog Beechcraft King Air 350i in the livery of SAAF 35 SQN "1718" & "1722". The liveries are fictional. The original registrations & liveries belongs to a pair of Avro Shackleton MR Mk3's that served in the South African Air Force.
As a replacement for the Short Sunderland, eight Avro Shackleton MR Mk3's were ordered in 1954, and delivery took place in 1957.
One Shackleton was lost on operations when it crashed in the Stettynsberg range of mountains during poor weather conditions on 8th August 1963 with the loss of life of all 13 crew. The Shackletons were finally withdrawn from service at the end of 1984 as their "time" had run out.
Shackleton 1716 was re-furbished to flying condition for the SAAF Museum, but had the unfortunate experience to crash land in the Sahara desert near the border with Mauritania on 13 July 1994 whilst on a flight to Great Britain to take part in a number of air shows. It suffered a number of engine failures and was forced to land in the dark, without any loss of life to the 19 crew on board. Another Shackleton 1722 has been re-conditioned to flying status and flies as part of the SAAF Historical Flight in Cape Town.
