Consolidated PBY Catalina

The seaplane, carrying 10 crew and 9 passengers, crashed when landing after returning from Merauke and Karumba. After touching down the aircraft traveled a short distance when it struck a large wave and sank by the bow.

Water looped on landing and sank off Pensacola, killing all three crew members.

The crew was completing an anti-sub-marine patrol mission off the South African coast when a fuel exhaustion forced the captain to ditch the seaplane off L'Agulhas. All crew members survived while the aircraft was deliberately sunk by a machine gun.

The crew was completing a night training sortie from Poole. After a waiting period of 25 minutes, the pilot completed a first flare. During a second flare, the aircraft took off in foggy conditions before hitting the water off Poole and sank. Eight crew members were killed while four others were injured. The aircraft was destroyed.

The seaplane took off from Bowen on an air to sea gunnery training exercise. At the conclusion of firing practice, the aircraft was making a run across the wave tops over a choppy sea and it is assumed that the port wing hit the water and the aircraft crashed into the sea and sank approximately 5 miles east of Bowen. Two crew members survived while 14 other occupants were killed.
