Some of you may have heard of the setbacks of the Dutch Catalina PH-PBY - the oldest flying one in the world - suffered earlier this year. First an engine failure, and then a nose wheel up landing. A freshly overhauled engine was acquired and the nose wheel damage is repairable, but the down time has led to a reduction in flight hours available for revenue flight. The damages plus the loss of revenues has brought the association operating PH-PBY in serious financial difficulties.
In short: they need your help - please consider donating towards keeping this Cat in the air! Contact the Association via their website

Thanks in advance!
