Model & Market Context

This airframe, tail number N3RB, is a 1972 airframe of the UC-1 Twin Bee model with serial 012. It was manufactured by STOL Aircraft Corporation / United Consultants Corporation and is currently owned by Twin Bee LLC (an LLC based in Groveland, CA, US). The aircraft is registered in US records; no additional notable registry actions have been published. Condition and formal valuation details are not published.

The UC-1 Twin Bee airframe is configured as a five-place amphibian with a single crew station plus accommodations for four passengers, matching the published cabin designation of 1 crew + 4 passengers (5-place amphibian). Specific avionics fit and interior amenity details are not published, and operator-specific modifications, if any, have not been disclosed. Based at Groveland, California under ownership of Twin Bee LLC, the aircraft’s published range of 780 nm and cruise speed of 114 kts imply suitability for short to medium coastal or inland amphibious missions and point-to-point passenger or utility operations consistent with its seating and endurance. Routine maintenance considerations follow from its twin Lycoming IO-360 engines and amphibious airframe roles, though detailed maintenance records are not published.

The UC-1 Twin Bee, as built by STOL Aircraft Corporation / United Consultants Corporation, occupies a fixed-wing multi-engine amphibian category combining short takeoff and landing design intent with twin-engine redundancy, as reflected in its twin Lycoming propulsion and five-place cabin. With a cruise speed of 114 kts, ceiling of 19,000 ft, and a 780 nm range, the type targets operators needing modest speed and range with amphibious capability and a small passenger load. Maintenance and resale considerations for this specific airframe hinge on age (built in 1972) and owner-documented condition, though formal market valuations and detailed condition reports are not published.
