I'm offering a $100.00 dollar gift certificate to Aircraft spruce for the first person that can get a copy or scan of the Catalina build manual sent to me.
Thanks
Luke

Amphibian project resurrection & modificationsI'm working on an abandon amphibian project that I'm trying to bring back from the dead. There too neat of an aircraft to not at least try to get it flying!!!
So here is where I'm at:
I've bought an amphibian kit that had had some work done to it and then was abandon, forgot about or otherwise left to decay possibly outside judging from the number of rodents that needed to be evicted and the airframes general condition.
I've determined that most of the major components are accounted for and look to be usable with the correct amount of elbow grease applied. Any work done by the previous builder needs to be reworked as the quality of workmanship was questionable at best.
I've built an engine mount for the 912UL I'm installing and am finishing up mounting the oil tank, radiator, oil cooler, voltage regulator etc.
As I'm moving forward with the project finding a Amphibian / Catalina build manual would be awesome if someone on the forum has one I'd gladly pay to have it scanned or a copy made.
I'll get some pictures posted ASAP
Thank you
Luke
