I know that the aircraft you posted is a different/newer one, but the Grumman Goose is somehow connected in my brain with all these similar looking amphibious flying boats :-)
- defrost 4y agoHeh. I was in my twenties when that "old TV series" aired, can't say I've see or heard of it but I grew up in the vicinity of Mungalalu | Truscott Airbase around people that flew in WWII and continued flying logistics around Northern Australia and various side of the Wallace line. A lot went on in region in post war | cold war era with East Timor, Indo takeover of PNG, etc. I've many memories of flying boats, STOL planes, helicopters, etc.
