Cool film..the amphibians on the taxi strip are Goodyear GA-2B Duck's, there were only
6 built and Aerofiles says they're all gone now. The possible exception may be the one
that went to Sweden.

The GA-2B Duck that was shipped to Sweden in 1948 was to be used in a European tour. It was two years later scrapped in Luxemburg. The concerned a/c was NC5506M.
