The Consolidated PBY Catalina was a development of a pre-war design which first took to the air in 1935. The PBY series were produced in greater numbers than any other flying boat and saw service throughout the second World War predominantly in a search and rescue role.
G-PBYA was originally ordered for the Royal Canadian Air Force as a Canso A amphibian, basically equivalent to the US Navy PBY-5A. It was built by Canadian Vickers at Cartierville, Quebec It was taken on charge by the air force on 27 October 1943 and initially saw service with 9 (Bomber Reconnaissance) Squadron at Bella Bella on the British Columbia coast between Vancouver and Prince Rupert.
G-PBYA now in its colours representing USAAF OA-10A 44-33915 first flew at a UK Air show in 2004, since then the Catalina has been operated by Plane Sailing Air Displays Limited. The enterprise is supported by its own ‘fan club’ – The Catalina Society. The aircraft is based at Duxford where it is a regular participant in the home airshows, but can also been seen in displays all over Europe.
