Seaplane

Curtiss Robin C-1


What I really wanted to show with this image is the photo behind the seaplane.
It is a Boeing Clipper landing on Manhasset Bay in Port Washington, New York.
Thanks to Tom Beech for correctly identifying both the plane in the foreground and the one in the photo behind it.
I grew up in Port Washington and took off in a seaplane from there several times in my childhood.
Our family doctor and close friend owned a seaplane and we would travel places with him.
Lots of fun!

Sorry Jane, I meant to say it is a Boeing Clipper on the wall, not a Martin
