Sanford Maine PBY

[dc8jet]

I'm headed for New England next week and I'm wondering if anyone knows if that PBY is still up in Sanford,ME.

The airframe still shows in my database as being there...
Aerial Visuals - Airframe Dossier - Consolidated-Canadian Vickers OA-10A Catalina - Canadian Vickers, s/n 44-33972
...but I don't have a reliable location marked at the aiport...
Aerial Visuals - Location Dossier - Sanford Regional Airport, South Sanford, Maine, - OA-10

If anyone can give a better location for the marker on the map right-click on the map at the known location to get the lat and lon. Just copy them and post here.

According to the Col. it's in the blue hangar on the northeast side of the airport.

It is.

Details are...Registration N483CV c/n CV-483. Previous identities: C-GFFC/N3202/CF-IIW/N1942M/44-33972, BuAer67936. The FAA register quotes the c/n as '013' which is not a Catalina c/n but probably dates back to the first US commercial owner and its paperwork.

The Wings of Freedom Tour aircraft are at Sanford for the next three days, so I will check with the crew to see if they can get some updated photos. I know they pulled it outside when we were there a couple of years back, so maybe they will do that again if the weather cooperates.
