Comment from poster:
They were part of 200 Catalinas that were bringing secretly transferred from the navy in the Pacific to the British. The cover story to why there were 40 PBYs in a lake in the middle of North Texas was they were escaping a hurricane in the gulf of Mexico.

In just 8 days fort worth promoter Amon G. Carter and the Fort Worth chamber of commerce arranged food, fuel, and lodging for the crews and mooring points for the aircraft. This quick response from Carter and the chamber of commerce later helped to convince consolidated to build a plant on the lake that has since built B24 Liberators, B32 Dominator, B36 Peasemakerd, B58 Hustlers, F111 Aardvark, F16 Falcons and F35 Lightning IIs
