Re: SC-1 Seahawk - BuNo 35518 - lost 2 Aug 1945 - pilot's name
Those details, including the pilot's name, are correct.
While in his final turn for landing the pilot allowed the left float to drag in the water. It tore off and the aircraft then bounced and dove in. Only the main and one of the wing floats remained on the surface.
