Yesterday, we were able to witness history. The last Martin JRM Mars flying boat stood down for its final resting place at Pima. We were fortunate to have a flyover at the Palm Springs Air Museum. She was followed in chase by our P-51 Man O War. Thank you to Coulson Aviation - Next Gen Firefighting for the fly-by and your support throughout the year. | Palm Springs Air Museum

The Hawaii Mars flying boat is one of the five large Martin JRM Mars-class seaplanes built by Martin Corporation. Designed as Bombers. Long range seaplanes of this type have impressive dimensions : wingspan 61 metres, length 36 metres, height 12 metres. | Defence Express
