Aerosoft Aerosoft Team [Inactive Account] 51558 Posted August 8, 2008 Author Aerosoft Share Posted August 8, 2008 Want to know how crazy the diverse models of the Cat is making us? Check this small conversation we just had online about it:Right so this a US PB2B-2 and when it was given to the RAF it was as a Catalina IV, even though it is a PBY-5 with a PBY-6A tail and the PBY-5A engine exhausts.

Stefan Hoffmann 4160 Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 The radar I am looking for is exactly like the one shown on the PBY-6A, not different. The Danes had the bigger radome, not the RNoAF.BestEveryone gets here what he had on his roof originally. Just found out that the danish folks had to rebuild their whole cockpit housing to avoid the metal coming down on them.THe normal construction featured a bigger window set above the radio/navigators chamber. THe danes had to remove those windows completely and rebuilt those whole sectionwith a solid structure, because the mass of their mega-radom had surely crushed the structure under critical conditions. Only look at the older images were the windows onlyleave a small metal bar in the roof, so the crew could climb over. THe radom surely weighs multiple masses more than a single crew member and new imagine some 'high' Gmaneuvers or shockwaves under battle stress...

Hiropemonkey 0 Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 I think this plane is looking excellent. When the thread first started, I wasn't sure if I was going to get it or not, but I'm definitely going to get it when it comes out. I also think it will be a really fun plane to have search and rescue missions for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
