Bag om PBY Catalina Flying Boat Pilot's Flight Operating Manual

One of the most widely-used multi-role aircraft of WWII, the Consolidated PBY Catalina was a flying boat to be reckoned with. They were used as anti- submarine warfare platforms in the Atlantic, and gained notoriety in the Pacific as rescue and reconnaisance platforms, and as bombers.

Originally printed by the U.S. Navy during World War 2, this Flight Operating Handbook taught pilots everything they needed to know before entering the cockpit. Classified "Restricted", the manual was recently declassified and is here reprinted in book form. This affordable facsimile has been slightly reformatted.

Beskrivelse af PBY Catalina Flying Boat Pilot's Flight Operating Manual

One of the most widely-used multi-role
aircraft of WWII, the Consolidated PBY
Catalina was a flying boat to be
reckoned with. They were used as anti-
submarine warfare platforms in the
Atlantic, and gained notoriety in the
Pacific as rescue and reconnaisance
platforms, and as bombers. With their
distinctive fuselages painted the shade
of midnight, the "Black Cats" undertook
daring raids of Japanese shipping and
shore installations.

Originally printed by the U.S. Navy
during World War 2, this Flight
Operating Handbook taught pilots
everything they needed to know before
entering the cockpit. Classified
"Restricted", the manual was
recently declassified and is here
reprinted in book form. This affordable
facsimile has been slightly reformatted.
