Title: Strawbery 5, restored PBY Catalina. great video Post by FLC on Mar 18th, 2015 at 6:47pm
We see a lot on the restorations of WWII era bombers and fighters, but this is something quite unusual.
The story of PBY-5A CATALINA (Strawberry 5) discovery and restoration for the US Navy museum in San Diego. It was the only remaining intact PBY 5 Catalina remaining in the World, and it was discovered in South Africa. PBY "STRAWBERRY 5" WAS THE PLANE THAT FOUND THE JAPANESE CARRIERS AT THE BATTLE OF MIDWAY WHICH BECAME THE TURNING POINT IN THE PACIFIC THEATER OF WWII. BEAUTIFULLY DONE ENJOY http://www.nxtbook.com/fx/media/ooyala/index.php?w=640&h=360&embedCode=l5cnRrbjoBGoU3i9mNk2WnlSwfvifrlA#ooid=l5cnRrbjoBGoU3i9mNk2WnlSwfvifrlA |
