Handling was just terrible lol. It "wallowed" around whenever you turned unlike just about any other aircraft I tried.
I think the old joke about the Catlinas was that they cruised at 100mph, climbed at 100mph, and dove at 100 mph  . That was my sim experience too.
It's one of those planes that is probably much more suited to a true flight sim as opposed to a combat sim. The work load is just too high for one person in a combat situation.

yeah definitely slow here is clip I took over the weekend of a takeoff ...
I would agree its not a suitable ride for online air-Halo fighter jock types but no seaplanes or big bombers are. That lot just want a big engine and lots of guns.
However I think a lot of people, especially offline players and campaign builders, would love a flyable PBY.
