Only two left in the world. Worth the trip to Hawaii to check it out once the restoration work is completed.

Well that is how the two survivors in private/museum hands originated. ; )

Here is the history of this particular "Kate", the one at the Pacific Aviation Museum: http://www.pacificwrecks.com/aircraft/b5n/jacquinot.html

The other example in private/museum ownership is in the UK (by last public report): http://www.pacificwrecks.com/aircraft/b5n/5353.html
