摘要

Five years ago at a desert storage facility, Joe Duke came across a 1954 Grumman G-111 Albatross calling his name. The flying boat had been brought there in 1983 after its conversion from a U.S. Navy search-and-rescue aircraft to a civilian airliner. Duke purchased the aircraft and went to work with friend Paul LeVeque on a five-year restoration project. Their efforts were rewarded at EAA AirVenture, where N51ZD won Grand Champion and was awarded the gold Lindy trophy. At the National Aviation Heritage Invitational, it won the Howard Hughes Trophy for Best Large Airplane and the National Aviation Hall of Fame People's Choice Award. We joined Duke and LeVeque in the 30,000-pound flying boat on an unforgettable sky/water adventure to the shores of Lake Mead. Marc Lee's story of our bucket-list adventure is in this issue.
