United States' Curtiss SO3C Seamew floatplane added

Few planes end their careers by having the plane that they replaced be brought out of mothballs to replace them! The Curtiss SO3C Seamew was such an aircraft. It had very poor performance and was withdrawn from service to be replaced by its predecessor, the Curtiss SOC Seagull.

Unfortunately I don't have any photos of the Seamew.
