Ex CF-HNH, F-ZBAV, N5555H, N2846D, US Navy 64017. Last operated by Haydn Air Charter (Norway), on lease from Avalon Aviation. Became G-BPFY on 25 October 1988, switching to US marks as N212DM twice before finally being cancelled as G-BPFY on 19 August 1998, on transfer to US marks as N285RA. Subsequently sold in 2008 to the Israeli Air Force Museum for preservation in false IDF marks as 3401.

ex BuNo 64017 eventually ended up in the Israeli air force museum at Hatzerim AB to represent an IDFAF machine.

Last operated by Haydn Air Charter (Norway), on lease from Avalon Aviation. Preserved at an air museum in Israel since 2006, painted as 3401 and in Israeli Defence Force colours.

This Catalina was resident at North Weald for many years but eventually left in 2004.

Built for US Navy as PBY-6A BuAer No.64017. Last operated by Haydn Air Charter (Norway), on lease from Avalon Aviation.

Following many years of storage in the UK, this aircraft was restored to flying condition by the Edward Brothers and departed North Weald in May 2004 for delivery to Israel. Unfortunately it developed technical problems and had to make a precautionary landing at Beauvais, France. It remained stranded there for several years, until dismantled and trucked to Antwerp in Feb 2008, for transport by boat to Israel. It finally arrived there in May 2008 and is now preserved at the Israeli Air Force Museum at Hatzerim AB in fake IDFAF markings as "3401" (the real 3401 was c/n 918).

This aircraft was last operated by Haydn Air Charter (Norway), on lease from Avalon Aviation, then stored at the East Midlands Airport for some considerable time. After almost 20 years of visiting the airport it was the first time I was confronted by the Security and ramp access rapidly became more difficult.
