Join the Restoration Team 

Our dedicated group of volunteers meet twice a week (Mondays and Wednesdays) at 13 Craftsman Close Beresfield to work on the restoration of a Catalina PBY-5A - the same model that flew from the Rathmines Base.  Team members share their knowledge and skills with each other, while preserving and building specific skills in aircraft restoration - and have a lot of fun.
