The soft evening light shows off this Republic RC-3 Seabee as it water taxis into dock at the seaplane base for AirVenture 2016. Although Seebees may not be the fastest planes in the sky, they make up for it in utility and beauty. Most Seebees were built from 1945-1947 so the nice ones today have been restored. Interesting seaplane if you don’t mind a 100 MPH cruise!
