under the window you are typing in, there is a button that says "click to attach files" Hit that, then click on the pic you want and hit upload... you can add more than one pick by clicking the attach button again.

C'mon Bob, fill up that brand new Catalina forum with lotsa re-do pics. I always thought the Catalina was very unique with three seats and likely superb off water with a 912, but the narrow wheel gear kind of scares me though. Any idea on the history or how many flying hours?

Great project, 3 cheers for bringing it back! :beerchug:

The panel has an hour meter that has 161 hrs on it. No engine log.

I talked to the builder and he said that was probably right.

The second owner, who I bought it from, said a horse had rubbed

on it which bent one flaparon, broke off all hing ribs, and

bent the strut. That owner never flew it. The last flight was

in 2K, and the last time the engine was ran.

I hooked everything back up and ran the engine to temp, ran strong.

There is a tare down in its future though.

I tried to post pictures, but I'm computer eliterate, also can't spell.
