Maybe you are still missing something.
What version game are you using?

I got this thing installed into my VP-Modpack for game version 4.12.
Some older mods also work ok with the 412 game version.

Some times I make other fixes on airplanes for my own personal game as I fly with them,
and I forget to
post an update for everyone, but in this case, I dont think so.
The last time I touched on it a few months ago (probably a year or 2 ago) I discovered the "holes" were coming from
some wrong alpha-channels and a new one had to be painted again and some file entries re-written.
Give me 10 minutes. I will go fly it again and check on my version.
I haven´t flown it in a long time. 

I will post here for you my game version and you can install it into your game.

Ok, thanks Max.

I'm flying 4.12.2m + mod 5.3 + VP modpack, and a few more individual aircraft installed added on top of that.

[max_thehitman]

OK Herb I am back.
Testing it went alright as before. It is flying in the VPmodpack (same pack as yours) since I first installed it a few months back.
No recent patches or anything else seems to have effected it.
 Looks great, flies OK.
Even tho it was made for a different game version, it flies in my game.
BUT do take notice that it is still a WIP airplane and more fixes can be made to it.

-- Here is my game version --- > https://www.mediafire.com/file/4fu3jim05j8733e/PBY-5_Mod_Aairplane_2016_MaxPersonalGame.7z

DO NOT OVERWRITE These folders with the one you have now.
ERASE YOURS and then add this new version. (...or disable your version game folder by placing a "-" minus sign in front of the folder).
You can keep the name of my folder just as it is, it will fit perfect into the VP-Modpack. This airplane-mod does not
need to be placed in a special order.
Also re-write all your ini.file entries. -- There is a READ_ME file inside the Mod-airplane folder.

Only problem I notice are the loadouts. It has a few bomb types and a torpedo. That is enough for me, but the
weapons.ru list has many more in it. I have to figure out later how to activate them all into this airplane.
But for now its good enough for me and for some great flying around.
What is more important to me is to have a good and proper looking airplane, the bomb loads and extras come later.

I have included a selection of 3 skins which I was still testing. They are inside the PaintSchemes folder.
The rest of the skins I still have to finish as they are all inside my Photoshop skin-Template and almost ready to be printed out on skins.
They just need a little more detail painting. So far they number 26+ new skins for this PBY.

Test it in your VPModpack and see if you can discover any other fixes for it.
I have already included a new default skin, interior and exterior skin re-textures and some minor file fixes. Will do some more later
when time is available.

Enjoy and have a great flight.

Very nice skins, Max ! 

[herbarnold99]

Praise Jesus! And Max! It works... thanks for your file, a long-time irritation is fixed.

I seem to now have exactly what you're flying (in terms of load-outs available), which is great.

My next quest will be to see if I can add those fixed 20mm cannons and rockets like mikoyan99's mod did. But it's much better for now, thanks again so much for your help!

Cheers,
Herb

[Knochenlutscher]

Max, the following Classfile needs to be re-written if you want
full loadouts.

But cool Tinkering, works fine.

Hey , look at what I found.

Nice finding, many thanks. 
Just found more when googling for pics with "MC72 cutaway". 

[1941UH]

Just wondering if anyone is working on the anfib PBY 5A mod?  I also have a problem with the 1.02 version as it will only load one torpedo whereas the original Ranwers will load two and drop each  on command.  I would also like to have both the Ranwers as PBY and the update as PBY 5, but can't get the air.ini correct to complete loading, crashes at over 70%.
