Exclusive Tour of the Catalina and Duxford Museum Visit
Description
This auction item is for you and up to five friends to visit Duxford and have a guided tour of the Catalina PBY-5A Miss Pick Up by one of the pilots. You will receive a detailed briefing which covers the history of the type and how the aircraft is flown and operated covering both land and water. You will also be presented with a souvenir booklet celebrating the aircraft's 80th birthday, signed by the crew. You will have plenty of opportunity to explore the aircraft including sitting in the blisters for a unique view and to take pictures. Please be aware that accessing various parts of the aircraft involves stepping over bulkheads. There will be an opportunity to explore the Duxford museum afterwards.
Many thanks to Richie Piper for organising this experience for the Aerobility Aviators Ball 2023.
