Close cropped Front/Port side view of Consolidated PBY-5A Catalina ZK-PBY (NZ4017) on approach to Wanaka NZWF Rwy 29, ending another flight at Warbirds Over Wanaka (WOW) 2010 on Sunday 04Apr2010. The Crewman in the blister monitors the approach (after taking photos of the airfield). I wonder how many knots of criuse speed are lost due to the drag of the blisters? I was lucky to have gone on a twenty minute flight in this aircraft that day, which included skimming over Lake Wanaka. My scheduled flight at 1200 hours was cancelled, but was re-instated for a 1600 hrs take-off on the final day of the airshow.
