Recommended Posts

Long time since my last post. Have been busy working on HPH's giant PBY-5A Catalina...

Consolidated PBY-5A Catalina Flying Boat - Bureau number 7277/20 of VP-93 US Coast Guard.

This Catalina was assigned to the Greenland Fleet Air detachment at Bluie West One (Narsarsuaq) during WW2.

The left side has been opened up, to make it possible to see all the beautiful interior details HPH has put into this great bird.

What a masterpiece you finished here and the figures support the scenery in a great way. I love the Cat and more than once I thought about getting me the cut away Version from HPH. In the end I don't have the courage for her and that leaves me raising my hat and say Chapeau.

Thank you! Appreciate it. It's been a long 'journey' and sometimes an arduous one, but I'm happy with the final result.

Cheers: Kent
