Van de Catalina Club of Western Australia ontvingen wij het volgende schrijven:
Subject: National Catalina Reunion
Dear Sir,
The above Club has won the right to host the 1994 Bi-Annual National Catalina
Reunion of all State Clubs and Association in Perth W.A. in September/October,
1994.
As our Members are getting older, it was felt that we would make this Reunion an
International one, with this in mind we are writing to all Countries that flew
Catalina Flying Boats (PBYs') during World War 2, i.e. New Zealand, United
Kingdom, Canada, America, Russia, Holland as well as Australia.
Therefore we extend a very cordial and warm Invitation to any ex-Catalina
Personel, be they Aircrew or Groundstaff, to attend our Reunion in 1994.
Accomodation rates are very reasonable and we plan to accomodate all Delegates
in the Applecross area, south of Perth on the banks of the Swan River. This
arrangement came about because our Members asked to be together.
I am enclosing a questionnaire and ask if it would be possible for you to include it
as an insert in your next Newsletter or Magazine if you have one. This is to assist
inadvanced planning in order to gauge the number of Members attending or
planning to attend.
Trusting this is in order and I look forward to hearing from you, and also
welcoming some of your Members to Perth.
Wishing you and your Family the Complements of the Season, I Remain, Yours
Faithfully, Eric.B. Carpenter, State Secretary.
