  The planes themselves were called PBY Catalina. They weren't retired until 1980.

  CJB, un riche propriétaire d'un conglomérat médiatique Grec vient d'en acheté 2 du Québec pour sa collection privée d'avions de collections notamment. Un millionnaire québécois en possède aussi au moins 1, peut-être 2. J'ai volé dans un y'a quelques années, il était à vendre et entre temps, il était stationné en Estrie. C'est impressionnant à voler comme avion même si vachement pas confortable.
