Kettering, Christian Dior, and King Farouk of Egypt. Grumman followed the Mallard with the Grumman Gulfstream family of luxury turbine aircraft. As businesses sacrificed the flying-boat’s versatility for the Gulfstream’s speed, Mallards were snapped up by operators of scheduled ocean airline services. Many were converted to 17-passenger ocean airliners and operated in conditions for which they were not designed where saltwater and rough water landings tragically led to corrosion and cracking of major structural elements in the wing. Because of the $1m+ cost of removing and rebuilding the wing to satisfy Grumman’s repair requirements and $3-4M+ to restore a mallard to original condition, many Mallards were consigned to the boneyard or patched up, refurbished, and placed on the market.

The Mallard’s control harmony and response made fun of flying this airliner through the turns of the gorge. Its deep-V hull and rugged “iron works” construction made for silky landings and take-off in Lake Chelan’s white-capped waves whipped up by winds from the north. On the water, a little power was enough to maintain position offshore while the co-pilot set the anchors from the bow hatch. The crew inflated the dinghy at the rear door before setting off to shore, leaving a topside lookout to taxi the flying-boat out of danger if the anchors were to drag. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5f8ca4f63ffa2e0246e934a4/t/5f978afbda32891d6b9a60be/1603767044847/01394fd3a8181bf021893d252b97761af8772d474f.jpg J57 https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5f8ca4f63ffa2e0246e934a4/t/5f978b1f9571a062e6862d3a/1603767079367/019e0c716edcd26e3b19447fb2787501d7e8119ec5_00001.jpg J57 https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5f8ca4f63ffa2e0246e934a4/t/5f978d03ee8118270283f15f/1603767561028/01635a468483d517b457d5aeef71fbae43957ae758.jpg J57 - TAKE CONTROL The navigation systems were replaced and upgraded.
