ThrottleUp Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 Hey guys just came across this. The excellent Aerosoft Catalina is enjoyed by many. I bought it myself and am having a ball in it. The great thing about our hobby is that we are curious for more knowledge. So after reading up about the Catalina online I stumbled on this real-life story. Check it out. Kinda sad for the poor Catalina but even then its got an Indiana Jones feel to it http://www.artificialowl.net/2009/07/abandoned-catalina-seaplane-50-years.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Scharnowski Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 Wow... that poor bird. But good that everyone came out of it alive. They can thank the Bedouines for being so lousy shots. 30-40 minutes of firing but only 300 hits on a target like that? That's bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dexter Dog Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 What a great story! A shame to see that plane just sitting there like that though, the wrecks always look sad to me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
