My favourite Walrus story. One that was being used as an air sea rescue aircraft picked up an American P51 pilot. Normally they took them back to base for a check up before the pilot was sent on to their home station. However the pilot persuaded the Walrus crew to drop him off at his home base which was on route. The Walrus landed and nothing happened until a jeep came out and stopped, the P51 pilot got out and the jeep drove around the Walrus before stopping again. A senior officer stood up in the jeep while the pilot climbed in. The Walrus pilot asked the SO if there was a problem. The SO shook his head loudly saying 'Dear God' and drove off leaving the Walrus crew to take off again.

I know they beauty is as beauty does but the Walrus was never a looker unless you were being picked up, when I am sure she looked stunning
