Hello Peter,
Thanks for posting that. There were a few other interesting tidbits in this video than the one in last weeks show.
wish they would have played more of the sea shanty Blow the man Down though.
Well Done, I thought.
Ref: the Catalina, ... -Boy would I love a ride on that. -To Catalina itself even.

Hi Joe,
Yes I enjoyed all the extra bits...I liked the Flight Engineer's position, up in the pylon
I remember seeing a couple of PBYs in Holland somewhere and there was another at Ardmore in NZ that I looked at rather wistfully and hoped for a ride, but sadly it was not to be!...But I did get some interesting rides there, including some solo time in a Tiger Moth and some great rides in two Harvards
