Easy air rudder locks! About $10. Read it here. =================================================== Another Seabee rises from the ashes Hey there, we are a group in Ottawa, Canada, who are working on rebuilding
Republic RC3 Seabee CF-FOY s/n 747 to try and get it back to an airworthy
condition. We really appreciate your website as it has been a world of
information for us and it's amazing to see the same appreciation for this one
specific aircraft type that all of us who are a part of this project share. We
would love to share the progress of this project with you. Here is the link to
our website: https://www.theseabeeproject.com/. As well if you wouldn't
mind sharing this to other possible seabee enthusiasts to try and raise
awareness for the project that would mean a lot to us.
=========================================Search the Seabee website! This is a tip from member Bruce Hinds. Type this in your web browser: "___________ site: www.republicseabee.com" Fill in the blank with, "Brakes, landing gear, hydraulics, etc." and a space between your word and 'site'. For example: hydraulics site: www.republicseabee.com Hint: type in the "blank" word in your browser then copy and paste the Seabee site above. Your browser will then list most of the articles on those subjects from the Seabee website. Note: You will also get links from other websites but the first listings will be from here. (I'll try to get a search bar going as soon as I figure it out) ========================================= International customers please note: Due to the rising cost of shipping, we can no longer honor the "free shipping" on internatonal orders from the Seabee Store. We can still ship your items but we must add a realistic shipping charge. It pains us to do this but we have to cover our costs. Shipping inside the U.S. will still be honored as "Free Shipping". We can make arrangements for international shipping costs. Thank you all for your understanding. (As an example, shipping to British Columbia, Canada for a Seabee T-shirt costs $29.56!) =========================================== New! Just added Lycoming GO-480 parts lists. All engines. See them here. =========================================== Send us your Float Strut Mirror Selfies! You can see them here ========================================  Most of Bruce Hinds Newsletters Newsletter from member Bruce Hinds with very good Seabee information. Bruce Hinds sent me most of the missing Newsletters! Thanks Bruce. Lots of reading to do!! (Most
missing Newsletters Added) 7/13/2017
