But I find the design of the Erco ball turret on the PB4Y to be staggeringly beautiful. More info below, reposted from !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! .

I don't know what it is about the Catalinas, I just think they're fuckin cool.

These two interior shots come from somebody at DailyKos photoblogging them for some reason earlier in the year. A lot of the photos on the internet of these have disappeared and date from >5 years ago.

PB4Y-2 is actually the Privateer, but it's conceptually kind of like trying to make a Catalina out of a B24. Very similar side bulges to the Catalina, but a good bit more dressed up.
