Holedigger, check in at PBY@yahoogroups.com. There are several Pearl PBY veterans on that forum.

Again, thanks for every ones help in chasing details down. Indeed, a community effort.

What kind of resolution is the orignal? Any chance that something like this could be printed up and gotten to TX in time for this weekend's events in Fredericksburg?

It runs at 6000x4440, so probably printing up at 16x20ish, and a smaller size at 11x15ish.

Looks great!

The only thing that I would suggest to change is the people in the distance. They are way too static. Would anyone just be standing around so casually?

A quick update here. I got three copies of the print in the mail today. Thanks Chris! We intend to have them at the L-5 (Lord willing and everything works) tomorrow. They look good.

I am attempting to get them up and available on my website, just have to figure out just how to do it and how big a bribe I have to slip the webmaster to get it done! :wink:
I'll try to set up some sort of WIX discount code for the good folk here.

wow wonderful site! Now that your into a PBY thing why not do up a print of those 4 PBYs from midway that attacked with torpedos on a transport? :)

Tue Dec 09, 2008 4:24 pm

Well, I don't know when I am going to get this up on my website, so if anyone wants to get one ordered in time for Christmas, just PM me. I will run a 20% WIX special through Christmas. Thanks again everyone for their help and info.
