I remember the "Tadpole" very well! Unsure if it was 3DB one, but its certainly the Republic SeaBee. Its actually parked down at Tyabb in Hosking's hangar waiting to have its restoration finished. I think it only requires an engine, and wings to be put on.
Other things to be noted:
- TVSA flying school gone
- MFTA flying school gone
- The "Caves" gone - old RVAC live in quarters
- Old CASA building empty & dessertted
- Linton is selling his hangar & contents
- Superior Aviation Services went under
