C-FLYL / 76823 (cn 9267) The Martin JRM-3 Mars was a long range patrol flying boat from World War II. Only 7 were built and now only two remain. This is the only flying example with the other being restored to its military configuration for display at the National Naval Aviation Museum in Pensacola, FL. It is used as a fire bomber and it's based in Sproat Lake, British Columbia. This was one of the highlights of the 2016 EAA Airventure. |
