Consolidated PBY Catalina

For those of you unfamiliar with this beloved workhorse of naval aviation, here's a link to the float plane that inspired the hopper we're in presently:

And for those of us unfamiliar with the TN equivalent,what hopper are we on, is it a grasshopper with floaters?

I don't have my aircraft manual handy, but I fancy it's a little bigger than a hopper. If the Hopper is a Huey, we're on something closer to a Chinook, is my sense of things.

Nope, I was wrong. It must be more like a Grasshopper after all.
