The Strathallan Collection continues to fade away: in early July 1990, two weeks after this picture of Avro Shackleton VP293 was taken, both the Shack and D.H.104 Comet XK655 were scrapped. As G-AMXA, the Comet was to have been BOAC's first Comet 2. Extensively modified (but still retaining its square windows), it went to RAF Signals Command as a Mk 2R. The Shackleton was the last remaining Mk 1/T.4, delivered to the RAF in 1951. Strathallan's Vampire XD403 and Fokker Instructor G-BEPV have gone to collectors at Errol and Norwich respectively, leaving just the Swordfish, Lysander and Magister stored on collection founder Sir Willie Roberts's estate.

ВВС ЮАР были единственным, кроме британских ВВС, эксплуатантом Shackleton - восемь машин Mk 3 в 1957 году поступили в 35-ю эскадрилью, летавшую до того на Neptune. По ряду причин, преимущественно политических (было введено эмбарго), самолеты эксплуатировались бессменно в течение 27 лет. В 1984 году они были сняты с вооружения, на их место пришли самолеты MR Dakota, прозванные "Dakleton".

Shackleton MR.Mk 2. Изображен самолет варианта MR.Mk 2 из 205-й эскадрильи Дальневосточных ВВС Великобритании, которая базировалась в Чанги, Сингапур. Эскадрилья была сформирована в 1929 году в Силитаре на основе дальневосточного звена. Более 30 лет на вооружении эскадрильи состояли летающие лодки. Свой первый Shackleton эскадрилья получила в мае 1958 года и эксплуатировала эти машины (сначала Mk 1А, затем Mk 2) до вывода частей британских ВВС из Сингапура в октябре 1971 года.
