Your use of the Harry James song, "It's been a long, long time" is not from the 1930's, it is from 1945, celebrating the return of GI's from overseas. By that time, landplanes had completely eclipsed the flying boat in commercial aviation.
The designs of each of these sea planes were soo unique at their time; but just like the fantastic ocean liners they were trying to replace it seems these marvels will be stuck in time. indefinitely There are sadly no complete examples of sea planes to be accounted for in modern times
Like the German airships and all steam locomotives, these had great beauty and comfort. They will always be missed. Today we just build cheap replacable junk.

Someone needs to build a Boeing 314 replica......
It's tragic that they only built 12 of them.

Try building a Boeing 757. Go ahead - it’s cheap! If you get it wrong, just replace it.
