Taxying for departure to Marseilles after arriving from Keflavik the previous evening. Has the logo of dune buggy manufacturer Meyers Manx on the tail. The aircraft had been here some years previously, in September 1958 as USAF 51-7186. Albatrosses were a common sight and sound around PIK as they had been based here with the local USAF Rescue Squadron in the 50s and early 60s.

Originally U S Navy Grumman UF-1 Albatross 141262 (re-designated a HU-16C in 1962) until retired to MASDC in1967. Bought by Allied Aircraft Sales in 1981 as interest was forming to convert the Albatross for civilian use. Registered N7025V in 1989, the aircraft flew for Air Crane and Island Flying Boats Inc 1989 - 93. A private owner bought the aircraft in 1994 and flew it as a warbird in the battleship gray and white colors from when it retired from the Navy. This color scheme was applied sometime after 2004.

The AURI, as the Indonesian AF was known before 1974, appears to have received its first couple of Albatross amphibians as long ago as 1954, followed by about 10 new UF-1s (pre-1962 designation for what became the HU-16) in 1957/58. A few ex-German Navy HU-16s were added in 1977. All but the first aircraft were originally serialled in the PB-5.. series like the PBY-5s that preceded them. This one displayed at the Museum since about 1993 was previously PB-517. IR-0220 is also preserved, at Bandung. The operating unit responsible for SAR duties was SkU.5 at Abdul Rachman Saleh AB, Malang

The 72-year-old machine, which served the USAF as SA-16B 51-7186, is seen here completing a four-hour flight from Bergen after a European tour. It has since been based at Southampton and is likely to remain in the UK for the summer 2024 season. The logo on the tail is that of Meyers Manx, a dune buggy manufacturer.

Previously displayed nearby on the other side of this hardstanding, under the seaplane crane on the shore of Lake Bracciano. The AMI received a dozen HU-16s to fulfil its SAR obligations under ICAO from the late 1950s, replacing the indigenous Cant Z.506 seaplanes and serving in ever reducing numbers until 1978 when replaced by HH-3F helicopters. The HU-16 latterly became quite problematic and spent extended periods under overhaul, while some were restricted to calm water or land-only operations.
