I too enjoy those flying boats, but never saw one of these monsters. Like the old clippers from the 30's and 40's, and the PB-Y from WW2. I always enjoy seeing them in the movie "Midway" , Who can forget "Strawberry 5" spotting the Jap fleet. I hope to see some of the Collings planes in a couple weeks, if its not too hot. They would be 4-5 hours away. Have never seen any of their planes and never saw a B-24. Thats on my bucket list-to video one in action.

Cheers,
Greg

PS a few weeks ago I shot video of the local museums event. A pair of T-6's, 2 T-28', a P-51, and later a C-45. Pretty interesting 45 minutes.
