In 1943 a few brave men reconnected an empire. They flew Catalina flying boats non stop for up to 32 hours across enemy territory, breaking the Japanese air blockade of Australia. They achieved the impossible, but despite all of this, the crews of the Double Sunrise Flights were never recognised for their brave efforts. Today a few brave men hope to change all of this. As they restore and fly, a 70 year old Catalina flying boat halfway across the world from Spain to Longreach. In order to preserve the memory of the Double Sunrise Flights. Their epic journey, will inspire you to persevere and to never give up hope.
