Product Description
Limited Edition Certificate has been removed from this model. (DE-SPEC)
In July 1940 210 Squadron moved to Oban to fly patrols over the Atlantic and in April 1941 converted to Catalinas. Patrols from Shetlands were flown for the rest of the war and on 4 June 1945 the squadron disbanded. the Consolidated Model 28 PBY Catalina was so successful in its definitive form that it went on to become the most extensively built flying boat of all time. Here, a 210 Squadron Catalina Mk IVA from RAF Sullom Voe, Shetland, has located two weary downed aircrew, drained but grateful after a long night in the North Atlantic swell. Model includes rescue diorama.
