Republic RC-3 SeaBee
This SeaBee is one of 12 plains that originally made
up the Sherut Avir. A local lawyer brought it to Palestine for private
use during the British Mandate. Since the Sherut's pilots had no seaplane
experience, the SeaBee only took off and landed on land.

On 15 May 1948, this SeaBee was damaged during an Egyptian Spitfire attack
on Tel Aviv but was later rebuilt.
