Anybody have any information on this aircraft after 2001?

She is now at the Pima Air & Space Museum, restored and on internal static display in RCAF c/s.

Scott,

Here is a current photo. Feel free to use it in the listing if you want. Pima acquired the plane in 2015 from the Lone Star Flight Museum.

Hmmmnn....Hurricane Ike diorama?

Just saw it last week. Looks spectacular as it appears be taking off. 'Static' it may be, but the display helps a lot with getting the feel of the plane in action. (Are any PBYs flying off water anymore?)

Duxford-based G-PBYA still flies from fresh water - three times this year in Northern Ireland, Poland and, most recently, SW France.
