Former RCAF Canso, civilianized in 1956, was operated by Air Caledonia out of Vancouver on charters from 1982 - 1986. It's presently in New Zealand undergoing restoration (ZK-PBY).

Former Buffalo Airways PBY C-FOFI was added to the Hans Lauridsen collection in 2005, arriving at Glendale Airport on delivery on 5 October 2005. It was assigned registration N343CV in February 2005, but this was not taken up and it was delivered as C-FOFI. It was eventually registered as N413PB a few months after this photo was taken, in October 2007. The aircraft is seen here undergoing restoration on the ramp, before being moved to Buckeye, AZ in late 2011/early 2012.

This Canadian Vickers-built Canso (ex C-FJCV, CF-JCV, RCAF 11054) was hired from its owners, Catalina Safari Company, to fly the Peter Stuyvesant Travel Odyssey in 1993. This was a filmed tour to Mexico, USA, Newfoundland, Greenland and Iceland. It included a contest between teams from Holland, Belgium and France, and was later shown on TV in these countries. After a job well done, the Catalina returned to Africa to fly tourists from Egypt to Zimbabwe, but was sold as ZK-PBY a year later. It was still active there by 2016.
