This Albatross served in the Canadian air force as a CSR-110 from 1960 until 1970, and then in the Chilean navy until 1979. She was one of two acquired by Malaysia as late as 1988. Troubled by maintenance problems, they only lasted for three years.

The Albatross which forms part of the superb outdoor collection at the Museo del Aire has recently been moved into a slightly better position for photos, possibly as a result of the Do 24 going indoors for restoration. Still carrying the former US serial, she served Esc 55/801 in the SAR role from Son San Joan airbase, Palma de Majorca. A total of 28 HU-16s were operated by the Spanish from 1954 to 1978

The Albatross which forms part of the superb outdoor collection at the Museo del Aire has recently been moved into a slightly better position for photos, possibly as a result of the Do 24 going indoors for restoration. Still carrying the former US serial, she served Esc 55/801 in the SAR role from Son San Joan airbase, Palma de Majorca. A total of 28 HU-16s were operated by the Spanish from 1954 to 1978

Originally thought to have been ex RCAF 9307 and to Mexico 8.3.74 (one of four CSR-110s supplied by Canada), but some doubt has now been cast on this aircraft's identity. Canadian Albatrosses had more powerful Wright R-1820-82 engines with an air scoop on top of the nacelle; this aircraft may in fact be one from two later batches of ex USN HU-16s, eight ex-DM in 1976 and four in 1978. Re-serialling later occurred and like many Mexican i/d's, this one is very difficult to verify

In the early 1960s, Shin Meiwa extensively modified a Grumman UF-1 (BuAer 149822) with a boundary layer control STOL system. The company, previously known as Kawanishi, used wartime experience with flying boats (see my Emily photo #20511to further develop the UF-XS, which first flew in 12.62, into an ASW patrol aircraft, leading to the PS-1/US-1 for the JMSDF. The unique UF-XS is now in the Kakamigahara Aerospace Museum; note unusual 4-engined configuration with 3-bladed props inboard and 2-bladed outboard
