Another aeroplane with a New Zealand connection. I'm not happy with the background - it is supposed to represent a cloud-covered island coastline - so I will rework it at some stage.
The aircraft depicted, RNZAF PB2B-1 Catalina, Code GF-C arrived in Fiji on 04 April 1944. It was declared surplus to requirements in 1951 and broken up at Hobsonville in 1952. Long-range patrols and reconnaissance flights were carried out from Lauthala Bay, Fiji by flying boats of No 3 Operational Training Unit.
