In reply to O. Jerry, that's fantastic that there's another Commodore pilot still with us! Thanks for checking in. Cheers, GC

In reply to Gregory. Greg: I came across this exchange only recently. We've lost contact with the BC team re recovery of the Lake Takla Commodore. I have over the past year corresponded with Bill Nash, who flew PAA Commodores in the 30's & early 40's. Next to Moon, I believe Nash is the oldest surviving Commodore pilot! Jerry

Would anyone know how I would be able to contact Capt. Moon Chin. Please look at our website for further information.

In reply to Gregory. The one on this page is Shirley Wilke Mosley's picture. It's one of my favorites, too. GC

In reply to Mathew George. Shirley Wilke Mosley for a few of the Commodore shots. I think cnac.org for some of the others. I'd have to know which ones you were specifically interested in, however. As far as I know, Moon Chin is the last surviving man who flew the Commodore.

I have recently penned a historical novel set in 1937 about a young women operating a flying-boat service from Southampton to Darwin using a Consolidated Commodore. ‘The Supermariner’ has been published on Kindle and I am currently advertising it on Facebook. I have gone to great lengths to establish an accurate historical context and I am looking to use an image of the Consolidated Commodore in the accompanying ‘Notes’ on Facebook so that readers might better understand this period of history. I am thus writing to enquire who might hold the rights to any images that I could subsequently use.

Many thanks.
