                        Check page 34 of The PBY Catalina in Action - there is a good in-flight picture of one of VP-63 Cats in the Atlantic scheme - the scheme is Dark Gull Gray uppers, Light Gull Gray sides w/white lower surfaces - apparently the same as the blue scheme but substituting grays

                        DJ,
                        There is good news.Smile [:)] Aeromaster makes a decal set (#48325) that includes a representative from VPB-63, the MAD CAT Squadron, which carries your paint scheme.Big Smile [:D] I have one of their other sets, and they give full views of the aircraft. Hope this helps.

                        PBY Catalina, Atlantic Squadrons paint scheme.

                        Does anyone know where I can find a 3-view picture of a WWII PBY Catalina in the paint scheme of an atlantic squadron? While the Pacific PBY's were usually painted blue and white, the Atlantic PBY's were painted a two-tone grey and white. I only have a picture that shows the side the aircraft in the Atlantic scheme, but the picure doesn't tell me anything about what the top of the wing looked like.

                        Thank You,

                        DJ
