Belated #PhilippineMars final landing video from Feb 10, including the PB4Y Privateer that kept her company on her last few hours in the air
What a different lake than the one at home here 😿
There is a big ass, historic plane in the desert. The “Philippine Mars” has a wingspan of over 200 feet and a length of over 120 feet and is one of only two surviving Mars aircraft in the world. #philippinemars #warbird #history
NEW VIDEO of the #PhilippineMars final flight, featuring the super duper rare PB4Y Privateer i caught in the game while trying to find the Mars (not available in-game bc tracked with MLAT) 😻😻😻

Philippine Mars being pulled out of the water, likely for the last time ever, as we speak! Lake Pleasant, AZ.
It's a little drier down there than the West Coast of Canada!

Screenshot from the linked page showing C-FLYK flying south east over the Monterey Bay, crossing over land just north of Monterey
Boo, no #PhilippineMars flyover for me :(
Look up if you're in the Salinas / Monterey area though

DAMMIT nope, not on Skycards 😿 But WATCHABLE on Flightradar24, for now at least! #PhilippineMars #CFLYK
Here is Yesterday’s thread about the historic departure and start of the final flight of the #PhilippineMars wildfire firefighting and US Navy air transport service plane. The largest flying boat to ever be in active service. She is in San Francisco now, she’ll head to San Diego this week and […]
The first #PhilippineMars Landing in SF video!!
I hope there will be more. that first shot of her coming in against the San Francisco skyline is just jaw dropping.
Best comment: "Once again, those bad Canadians trying to sneak aluminum into the States before the tarriffs kick in" 😹
Enormous flying boat from 1954, painted in black and powered by four piston engines, crosses the Golden Gate. Nearby seagull is oblivious.
Philippine Mars flying above Alcatraz Island in sunny skies. Small plane follows behind.
Philippine Mars flying off to Oakland between old San Francisco buildings, particular the one with the Blue Angels mural.
Philippine Mars tied up in its home from 80 years ago, Alameda Naval Air Station Seaplane Harbor (defunct).
#PhilippineMars entering #SanFrancisco Bay this afternoon from Crissy Field. Regret not going over to Alameda to see it up close but still nice to hear it from afar.
HOORAY! someone shot the #PhilippineMars this morning from the beach in Fossli Park on Sproat Lake, where @birb.mom and I watched Hawaii Mars doing a test flight last July! 😻
I gotta say, the almost-black plane looks so good against the almost monochromatic winter landscape.
i love it when i make a typo in a hashtag. #PhilippineMars , not "mats" lol
Anyway, off to the grocery store or something. So glad i got up to see it off this morning 💕
Flight tracker shows two planes which made a sharp turn to the east/right from the beach over land.
A view of the satellite tracker of the Mars show her continuing down the coast of Oregon.
Looks like the two escorting planes said farewell and have left Philippine to fly on south by herself.

A post from Facebook shows the Mars in the air close to an ocean beach.
Just passed Yachats, Oregon a few minutes ago with two planes in formation. Slowed down considerably. Only doing 125knots.

Anyone have a free link to the NBC live channel? #PNW #PhilippineMars #PortAlberni #SanFrancisco #pimaairmuseum #Seattle #Portland #WWI #Aviation #history #finalflight
Heads up to San Francisco people! Head to the Golden Gate in the next hour to see the return of the Philippine Mars to those waters for the first time since the 1950s!! She will be landing in the bay. Apparently NBC might carry it live in a helicopter?
🚁

A screenshot of the satellite tracking app shows three windows. A large zoomed out view showing her entire track from vancouver island down the coast, a medium zoom with her off the coast near Portland , and a very close view showing her just off the beach
Passing Surf Pines Oregon and Portland area. #PNW #PhilippineMars #PortAlberni #SanFrancisco #pimaairmuseum #Seattle #Portland #WWI #Aviation #history #finalflight
She appears to be off of the “radar” of the regular trackers.
This is a satellite track that the company put out to track her.

This video captures more of the sound and rumble echoing through the mountains on the lake. That’s the sound we all know and recognize. That’s what we will truly miss in our hearts around here. There is simply nothing else like it.

Well it happened. The @CoulsonAviation #philippinemars has left Sproat Lake #PortAlberni and is now headed down the coast to #SanFrancisco. Over 10,000 people watching on Flightradar24 says it all. @cheknews.ca
Listening to that rumble as she takes off in the distance and flies over the trees. Away she went. Forever. 😢
