Last take-off and Goodbye PBY-5A Catalina PH-PBY en Fly By Lelystad Airport 29 05 2019
Op woensdag 29 mei 2019 was een trieste dag in de Nederlandse vliegtuig history. De iconische PBY-5A Catalina PH-PBY, uit 1941, welke in de tweede wereldoorlog veel heeft betekend voor Nederland, verliet deze dag voorgoed Nederland en vertrok naar haar nieuwe thuisland de USA.
Jarenlang heeft de Stichting Catalina en haar vrijwilligers alle liefde en vrije tijd in het toestel gestoken en haar gekoesterd om haar vliegende te houden. Helaas hebben grote kosten en de daarmee samengaande financiële problemen ervoor gezorgd dat ze niet langer meer in Nederland kon blijven en verkocht moest worden.
Gelukkig wordt ze door de nieuwe eigenaren van de Collings Foundation met liefde ontvangen en zullen ook zij haar koesteren.
Hier een video van haar vertrek naar de USA, haar uitgeleide door de Fokker Four, de North Amerikan AT-6A Texan PH-TXN van Wings over Holland en de Douglas DC-3 Dakota van de Dutch Dakota Assosiation waarmee ze jarenlang de Hangar deelde. Verder vlogen nog mee een Reims Cessna F172M Skyhawk PH-LVH van Wings over Holland (fotovlucht) en een Cessna 185 Skywagon watervliegtuig PH-DUK eveneens van Wings over Holland.
