USAAF OA-10 "CATALINA"

Below are the serial numbers of the OA-10s that were either produced specifically for or transferred to the USAAF. This does not, however, include the 76 aircraft that were originally ordered by the USAAF that were diverted to the US Navy. The information came from the book "Consolidated PBY Catalina, the Peacetime Record" by David Legg. The photos came from a variety of places and the credits are below each photo. My goal is to have a photo for as many serial numbers as possible. If you would like to contribute a photo, just e-mail me and I will add it!
