They've Got a Shackleton!

We went to the Manchester Museum of Science and Industry again. Whilst visiting Cathy's family in Manchester a couple of months ago we went to the Doctor Who exhibition in the Museum of Science and Industry and then we looked in the engine hall. On our way out I noticed they have an air and space hall too. So we went back during this visit to have a look. After I had finally dragged everybody away from the top floor "Explore" exhibition for children I had a chance to inspect the museum's Shackleton up close.
It's what became of the Avro Lancaster. The museum's example was built in 1954 and looks like a Lancaster on steroids. It was designed to track down and destroy submarines. You can get up close to the aircraft and the other exhibits which include the first Avro aircraft, the Avro One, all built in Manchester
