Catalina?
Ugly Duckling?? I've never heard her called
that.

I think she's rather pretty.

Thanks for the link Peter.

Brian...I agree, the Catalina has always been a very beautiful Swan as far as I'm concerned. I particularly liked the Blister Turrets and noticed that they were very well restored on that one.
Joe...Yes I have always wanted a good Catalina in Flight Sim with the same flight deck quality as the MAAM Dakotas
BTW...I noted the other day that Aerocaches were all removed from the MS FLIGHT server...But they re-appeared a day and a half later...I'm now up to 331 out of 350

I expect they were just doing some testing prior to the changes next month

Do you now have the RV-6A?...If so you will have noticed that it has full inverted flight capability. We should meet up using them instead of the Icon

So ..from now on, if the pax sounds whinny right off, they get the boot!

I've been. trudging along with the jobs boards mostly.. and free flight.
