Summary
| Description |
c/n 2008 The US-1 was an amphibious development of the PS-1 anti-submarine flying boat and was used specifically in the Search and Rescue role. The type (US-1) first flew in 1974 and 20 were built, not being finally retired until December 2017. During their career they rescued some 827 people and suffered only one fatal incident when aircraft ‘9080’ capsized during landing, resulting in 10 fatalities. An impressive machine, as are all flying boats, this well-presented example is on display at the Kakamigahara Aerospace Science Museum, Kakamigahara City, Gifu Prefecture, Japan 15th March 2019 |
