Found the following BBC link with details about a Shackleton event at Newark in August this year.
Also a few similar details at the bottom of the news page on the museum website:

Oh wouldn’t it be great if one of her griffons was able to be runup again …:rolleyes:

A nice idea, but having read in the book Shackleton WR977 – Dedication To Duty about how the aircraft was dismantled so quickly to move it from RAF Finningley back in 1977 I don’t think that the Griffons will turn at Newark.
However I believe that the ones on the Mk.3 at Gatwick are run sometimes.
