SACRILEGE! - a Catalina with electric motors, flying around sounding like two hair dryers instead of an airplane.
I am OLD! - but I have had great experiences like flying time in a USAAC (US Army Air Corp) PBY-5A. We used to say, and it was close to the truth: Take off at 90, cruise at 90, land at 90. So awkward and almost ugly looking, it was beautiful. And dependable as anything else we had in those days.
Cut holes, add lead, but go with glow! Luck, Eloy
