Canadian Vickers PBV1-A Canso A for Fs9

Shessi

SOH-CM-2025
Hi Folks,
Just uploaded two Canadian Vickers PBV1-A Canso A's. These are the Canadian built PBY-5A Catalina amphibians. One representing RCAF David Hornell's VC winning ac, and the second a late war RCAF 162 (BR) squadron ac, with bubble front turret and upgraded mg weapons for anti-uboat patrols.

Now the main thing in all this is that I have a huge thanks to Mav (the 'scasm king'..he'll hate that! ha!), without his patience and scasm work these would not be here.

The second thing is now I've got the basic PBY-5A's working...YES the 5A amphibians, this means all the 5A versions are available, so you poor b&^%$£$s, it means a whole lotta new Cats!!! HA HA!!

Cheers

Shessi

Lots of different variations for the big Cat suits me just fine. I have them all stationed up and down Australia's eastern coastline, and over the English Channel and the Cliffs of Dover, Shessi. Always room for a Catalina! :encouragement:

Thanks a bunch!!

The Russian PBY Nomad

More Cats is great but I do recall a Russian PBY called the Nomad (I Think) it was for FS98

Thanks
