Great photos thanks for posting them.
Had a friend (Don McVicar RIP)who was in Ferry Command in WWTwice ferried PBYs to england via Bermuda - they lost a crew there trying to return at night on one engine - found a photo of him in the Bermuda dockyard museum.
Anyhoo I digress- must have been a great flight - wish I could have been there. (since all went well)
Cheers
