PK-CPE  Consolidated PBY-5A Catalina                      (c/n  85)

                              

                                  Here's an interesting shot, circa 1950.  On the left is the Caltex DC-3 PK-PAA.  The Garuda Convair
                                  is PK-GCE, while on the far right is a RAF Handley Page Hastings with "343" on the fin.  This latter
                                  was probably out of RAF Changi, Singapore, and would clearly not have been there a decade later
                                  when the brouhaha with Indonesia started after the Federation of Malaya, Singapore, Sarawak, North
                                  Borneo and Brunei were formed in May 1961.    Anyway, PK-CPE was the former US Navy BuAer
                                  04996, and was civilianized as NC1217M.   Garudas named it "Enu"..
