Saw the trailer for Expendables 2 recently, and while I don’t have a great desire to see the movie, I am curious about the flying boat used. Research has shown that a Grumman Albatross was used in the 1st movie, but it definitely isn’t that (the sponsons are in the wrong place)
My google fu isn’t finding it (plenty of angles in the latest trailer, but it doesn’t math the dozen or so candidates I tried)

Someone needs to update the database at IMPDb! 
Here’s a pic before it was painted:

Yep - that’s it. The CL-215 is even in my big book of seaplanes, but I missed it.
Thanks!

Oh awesome…I’d only known about the IMFDB. Thanks!
