The PBY is the CWH bird that showed up Monday but had the nose gear fail to come down. They flew over Oshkosh and had a visual.confirmation from the tower. They went out over the lake to work on it and we never heard any more. Now I know where it is. They got her down and I guess chose Appleton for repair location. Their guys can fly commercial to/from there and perhaps that is why they chose Appleton instead of Oshkosh.Couple more, I took these at the Appleton airport before heading to Oshkosh this morning.

Just a guess on my part.
