Indeed! A friend of mine who used to rebuild PBYs said there was was a very nice one, the interior done in a 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea motif, that had a dingy carried under one wing, You could land, anchor the PBY, go to a waist window and lower the dingy into the water so you could pull it over and board it to go to shore. They were shooting landings with it off Avalon Harbor, Catalina Island in the late 60's and for some reason lowered the landing gear for a water landing. My friend was sent out to recover the airplane and fly it back to New Orleans to be rebuilt.The ultimate RV
He was kidding - sort of like when someone says "pics, or it never happened!"Why does a poster need "to prove it". If he knows there are 3, there is 3.
