It's a huge surprise to spot this one during dinner our time via FR24 around KLAF, but unfortunately it's heading to Frankort not KLAF. After driving for about 40 min from Lafayette to Frankfurt, we were finally able to see this beauty sitting quietly under the starry night. Background is the typical Corn Field and houses. The quiet & clear rural atmosphere inspired me to take a shot like this underneath the star curtain.

Ex N691RF, CF-OWE, RCAF 11074. Became N222FT and still current in 2023. What I took to be (and hoped was) a flypast before touch down turned out to be a too-high landing approach, which very nearly ended in tragedy when it struck a buoy, tearing off the port wingtip.

Aside from regular work, this Canso would also be an emergency spare engine source for the DC-3 fleet. It was sold in December 1983.

This vintage Catalina was owned by Wilson Edwards since 2000, but in 2019 it was sold to another owner. In early August 2020 it was one of two Catalinas and several other warbirds that were shipped from NAS North Island to Hawaii aboard the USS Essex (LHD-2) for the 75th VJ-Day celebrations there, marking the end of WWII for the USA. It is seen here taking off from the waters of Pearl Harbor in preparation for those celebrations. Photo by: Mass Communication Specialist 2nd Class Charles Oki / DVIDS

After a smooth if rather late touchdown this Catalina veered starboard and smashed its port wingtip and float off on a steel harbour buoy. It spun round ,started shipping water and had to be towed to a slipway where it sank. Rebuilt at the old RAF Mount Batten seaplane base in the sound it was flown out some months later. Owner Bob Franks and passengers weren't seriously hurt, and the Catalina was still flying by 2020 (as N222FT).

After a smooth if rather late touchdown this Catalina veered starboard and smashed its port wingtip and float off on a steel harbour buoy. It spun round ,started shipping water and had to be towed to a slipway where it sank. Rebuilt at the old RAF Mount Batten seaplane base in the sound it was flown out some months later. Owner Bob Franks and passengers weren't seriously hurt, and the Catalina was still flying by 2020 (as N222FT).

A long smooth approach followed by a spectacular but non fatal collision with a marker buoy. This was one of two PBY Catalinas celebrating 75 years of US Naval Aviation with a recreation of a 1919 Atlantic crossing by USN Curtiss NC flying-boats. Owned by Robert Franks.
