The story of a small group of enthusiasts, who against all odds, brought a rare and valuable PBY-5A Catalina amphibious flying boat to New Zealand, is now re-released on DVD.
This colourful documentary tells the Catalina saga, from its shaky beginnings to the final arrival in New Zealand of a significant piece of aviation heritage. Lots of great Catalina footage throughout, including dramatic shots of the sad loss of their first aircraft in the middle of the Pacific, plus stunning film of Z-CAT, (now ZK-PBY) amongst breathtaking New Zealand scenery. Essential viewing for historian and Catalina dreamer alike!
