This flying boat became one of the legends of WWII, patrolling vast oceans and earning the nickname “Flying Porcupine” for its heavy defensive firepower. Check out part 1 of 2 in this Video from the Vault, we’ll take a look at my own Sunderland and share a bit of its incredible story. | Kermit Weeks

OK, Gang, I seem to have acquired another airplane project! And while it’s a bit outside the Vintage Aircraft era of interest, it will become a nice “Legacy" for Fantasy of Flight.
