The first one looks like Chris "Eagleskinner" Boland's repaint of the Aerosoft Catalina PBY for FSX. There are some Numa repaints somewhere in the WWW made by fans - and some do look really good...

That sounds about right! As I'm going through my Cussler picture files looking for pics to do with my collection to post in the current topic in the books forum, I'm finding a bunch of pics that I thought would be fun to post.

Here's Dirk squeezing his way out of the maze ....

What a great idea. Gather up all the pictures & illustrations from Clive's books on every continent & put them in their own book. That'd be cool.

A Med Caper movie would be easy to make. The cost would be under 10 million, if Clive's fans could stomach unknowns being cast as Dirk and Al ( I think this would be best).

It goes almost without saying that the attack on the base would have to be at least 80% CGI. The sub launch (underwater) scenes would most likely have to be CGI as well.

The Catalina/Albatross scene would be pure fun.

The classic Maybach scene ...

"Well I'll be damned," Pitt muttered, spotting the car. He moved closer and his face betrayed an admiration for fine
automobiles. It was a Maybach-Zepplin town car, complete with a sliding glass partition separating the enclosed
passenger compartment from the driver, who sat in the open exposed to the sun. Behind the large double-M ornament
on the radiator, the hood stretched back six feet and ended at a low split windshield. giving the car an image of great
brutish power. The long flowing fenders and running boards gleamed black but the coachwork was painted a deep
multi-coated silver. It was a classic among classics: superb Teutonic craftsmanship evident in every fitting, every nut
and every bolt. If the 1936 Rolls-Royce Phantom III typified the British ideal of silence and distinguished mechanical
efficiency, then its German counterpart was found in the 1936 Maybach Zepplin.
