On this day in 1941, a PBY Catalina helped locate the German battleship Bismarck. Long-range patrol aircraft like the Catalina became essential eyes over the ocean in the Battle of the Atlantic. The American Heritage Museum is close to completing our epic restoration of a Consolidated PBY-5A Catalina that fought in the Battle of the Atlantic in 1942-1943. The restoration taking place in Florida will be wrapped up this summer and the aircraft is planned to make its first public appearance at the EAA AirVenture Oshkosh Airshow in July.
