    Grumman Goose........

    I remember the seaplane..........but can't find any clips online

    all the triva points to a grumman goose....but then they are very similiar......here is a registration number.....

    The seaplane used in Commando is registered N143DF which was a 1942 Grumman Goose. It was destroyed in a hangar fire in 1999

    Here is a shot of that plane.....I think it is it if I remember the scene
