kalizzi Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 I took the Republic Seabee for a joyride around the beautiful island of La Palma (one of the Canary islands). This was my dream plane as a child I used to stare for long time at its adverts in Popular Mechanics with the family going out for a picnic and its beached somewhere nice with coconut trees. I changed the painting in mid flight. Hope you guys like it.

wolf2 Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 I like it too. 'member when 007 landed one of those on the man with the golden gun's island and scaramanga destroyed it with a ray gun? edit: come to think of it, scaramanga also drove a car that could be converted to an airplane (the kind you'd attatch wings and an engine to), and when he got away from bond in that, britt eckland in a bikini was in the trunk!

kalizzi Posted June 17, 2017 Author Share Posted June 17, 2017 Adam, Michael, Klee, Kenny, Phil, and Jason: Thank you all for your lovely words and so glad you liked the pics. Best wishes to all of you folks. Just one thing, I know that the SC-3 Seabee is built by Republic (who manufactured the immortal planes P-47 Thunderbolt and F-105 Thunderchief, and many others) but the tail unit, and the empennage, it looks as though it has been sawn off a P-51 Mustang? or is it just my eyes deceiving me? the resemblance is just too great to go unnoticed...
