Its ex SAAF 1723 and has lived on top of this garage in the Armadale area of Jo'burg in various paint schemes for the last 25 years. 1717 was kept on a farm in Stanger for many years but has been broken up, as has 1720 which used to guard the Officers Mess at Ysterplaat on the outskirts of Cape Town where I last saw her in rather poor condition in 2012. Inside the museum at Ysterplaat is 1722, while 1721 is in good nick at the superb museum at Swartkop (just outside Pretoria). Of course we should have had an ex SAAF Shack (1716) here but it forced landed in the western Sahara desert in Morocco on its delivery flight back to the UK in 1994 and remains there abandoned to this day.   |
