The PBY Catalina is a amphibious aircraft that served in almost all theaters of WWII. Although not very fast, the PBY was defended by (most of the time) two bow machine guns, opposite facing waist gunners, and sometimes a bottom gunner, with a water seal hach. These defenses, and a sturdy design, led to one of the most sucsessful flying boats of the war. To Fly: power 100% pitch back. Getting off the trolly is kind of difficult, so it may take a few trys. To get better endurance, fly at 50 to 60% trottle. Hope you enjoy, rate and comment please!
