Ok so cool we are publishing! Well they are saying that even after this terrible thing in California that we should just act
normally in the midst of the investigation of the shootings! Tinker think's they could be a train wreck of military or para
military diversions masking other criminal activity and we thought we'd write a little information about the Consolidated
PBY-5 Catalina flying boat from WW2! This aircraft the internet reports first flew on March 28th 1935 and March 28th 1979
was the day of the nuclear accident in Pennsylvania known as Three mile Island! About this time Jane Fonda made a movie about
a nuclear melt down of a nuclear power plant in the 1970's I can't remember the name of the movie but it was about this time
that this accident happened! "Oh", it was called the "China Syndrome"!
Also later
in the year in August Lord Mountbattan the head of the British intel services was killed in an IRA explosion in his boat as
it hit an IRA mine and a day or so after that a comet hit the sun which we have the first pictures of one doing so at the
time! Omens and stuff like that have been attributed to comets in the sky and it was around this time that little tinker bell
was working on a motorized hang glider that my friend built from a kit, and getting ready to go to aviation school and
we used the name Grand Planet Airship Company on our brochure's we printed up as we hung the craft up in our local Mall in
Moline, Illinois but the economy was just terrible at the time and we gave out very little information to the public!
The PBY-5 Catalina was built by Consolidated and 3305 were built between 1936-1945 2,661 were U.S. built 620 were built in
Canada and 24 were built in Soviet Russia! Cost in 1935 was about $90,000 dollars U.S. adjusted for inflation today about
$1,553,374 dollars it was retired from the U.S. Navy in 1957 and retired from the Brazillian navy in 1979!
