We’re on our way to EAA AirVenture Oshkosh with Consolidated PBY-5A Catalina BuNo 2459 and the crew is spending the hours documenting what it was like to fly long patrols on the slow PBY. Here is a glimpse of some of the interior “comforts”, defensive positions, and views. Of course, in the 1942 North Atlantic, shorts and T-shirts would have been swapped for shearling coats and flight suits. Enjoy the clips! #wwii #pbycatalina #eaaairventure #warbirds #navalaviation
The PBY-5A Catalina BuNo 2459 is on its way to EAA AirVenture in Oshkosh, WI from Florida! The crew is passing through Georgia now and will be working into the Midwest for an overnight along the way. On the way out of Florida, the PBY flew over P-8 Poseidon's at Cecil Field - the same mission, 84 years apart! Before departure, we got a photo of the team at American Aero Services who worked on the PBY - there were many others that helped over the seven year span, but their dedication and excellence in craftsmanship truly made #2459 singular in regards to originality - thank you for everything, American Aero Services!

Renowned History & Aviation Artist Rob Brun – Talk and Battle of the Bulge Painting Debut
February 1, 2020 @ 2:00 pm, ending 3:00 pm
$20
Artist Rob Brun has been working with the Collings Foundation and American Heritage Museum for years capturing the Foundation’s aircraft and military machines in unique and captivating paintings.
After a year of research and work, Rob Brun’s latest painting “Battle of the Bulge” has been completed. We are looking forward to seeing his master workmanship and hear what goes into creating such a detailed and dynamic piece.
Battle of the Bulge: At dawn on December 16th, 1944, the German Army (Wehrmacht) invaded through the Ardennes Forest bringing to bear 410,000 troops, 1,400 tanks, 2,600 artillery pieces and 1,600 anti-tank weapons in what became known as the “Battle of the Bulge,” the bloodiest battle of WW 2.
This painting, commissioned by the American Heritage Museum (Hudson, MA) and with the assistance of the 502nd Parachute Infantry Regiment re-enactors depicts those first moments of the morning of 16 December 1944.
The painting, which will be on display at the museum, will be premiered at the museum on February 1st at 2 p.m. followed by a lecture by the Artist on the research and process in creating this painting.
High quality 12″ X 16″ archival, digital gilcee collectors’ prints will soon be available autographed by the Artist and with a numbered certificate of authenticity.
There will be several other paintings from Rob Brun on display during the event:
Cost is general admission to the American Heritage Museum:
