Product Description

From the Manufacturer

One of the most important capabilities of the Catalina patrol bomber was its long endurance time and durability. During World War II, in addition to the plane's scouting duties, this rugged flying boat was invaluable as a search and rescue tool. Following the War, the U.S. Air Force continued these operations with two hundred and thirty PBY-5As, built for the Navy but were released to the Army and were designated OA-10A.

This review is from: Revell 1:48 Pby Catalina+C13 (Toy)

I've enjoyed building this model immensely. The detail is excellant, all it needs is a steady hand, a small tipped paint brush and a selection of military color paints to make it a show piece. Options included in the kit allow for different versions of post WWII configurations. A little reseach and you can build it as a early war version (leave off the post war radar and detection antennas)and use a different paint scheme.
This is NOT a kit I'd recommend to anyone under 12.
