The Black Cat has some appeal but is it right?

The models they used for the pre-production shots is clearly a 5A, but the description "VP-34, LT. PFLEEGER, AIR FLEET WING 17, NEW GUINEA, 1944" definitely refers to a 5. Lt. Pfleeder's aircraft, registered 69 (BuNo. 08363), belonging to VP-34 (or VPB-34) in Fleet Air Wing 17, was involved in a semi-famous rescue of a B-24 crew that had ditched on its return from a raid on Truk. See profile; See also the third picture on this page (from Robert Hayes' book "Bless 'Em All"). As near I can tell, VP-34 was never equipped with the 5A.
