Ah balls …..

Amiot 354 is a beaut. Never heard of it before but it looks like it was designed by someone involved in the Schneider Trophy. A sharp point on the front and swept tail – class!

EDIT Wikipedia says they even built a racing version (Amiot 370) for the cancelled NY-Paris air race.

Bugger – just posted some photos, only to be told I must be logged in! Which I was, until I pressed submit…😖
Anyway, I went to the Weston-Super-Mare Air Day, weather was ideal, and one of the displays was a Catalina. I’d stood underneath one on static display, which brought home just how big the bloody things are! The display was by ‘Miss Pick Up’, and it was a great display along the sea front.
I’d also forgotten that, aside from being a rescue plane, they were marine bombers.
