Canadian Vickers Limited PBV-1A Canso A, flying boat (UK registration G-PBYA) at the 2009 Royal International Air Tattoo, Fairford, Gloucestershire, England. The Canso is the Canadian Vickers Ltd version of the PBY-5A Catalina. G-PBYA was built in 1944 in Canada, for the Royal Canadian Air Force,

This aircraft is kept at Duxford, England, and owned by Catalina Aircraft Limited.

Photographed by Adrian Pingstone on departures day, July 20th 2009, and placed in the public domain.

However, if this is a Canso built for the RCAF why does it have US markings?
