The Sea Duck is a red and yellow seaplane that is featured in The Disney Afternoon animated series TaleSpin. It is piloted by Baloo and is owned by Higher for Hire. The Sea Duck is one of the fastest and most famous aircraft around.

Designed just after the end of the War, the Conwing L-16 was one of the first "multi-purpose" aircraft, serving as either a cargo or passenger transport, or both. Designed with a roomy hull and all the features available at that time, the L-16 was the plane to end all planes.

TaleSpin is a 1990 animated television series, starring characters from Disney's 1967 animated feature film, The Jungle Book. It premiered on May 5, 1990 on Disney Channel before moving to the Disney Afternoon for its official premiere.

Baloo von Bruinwald XIII is the hotshot pilot of the Sea Duck. He is the lead character of the show. Although lazy, slobbish, unreliable and always broke (as bears often are), Baloo is also an excellent pilot capable of the most daring maneuvers in the air (and the courage to do them) and can selflessly come to the aid of those in need of help.

TaleSpin is about bush pilot Baloo the Bear and his Sea plane. He is working for the freight service Higher for Hire together with his young navigator Kit Cloudkicker. Both often encounter with a gang of air pirates led by Don Karnage and the evil representatives of the fictional state of Thembria (a parody of Stalinist Soviet Union).

Baloo suffers amnesia after he hits his head while taking a shortcut during a cargo run. He then lands on an island where an old pilot, Joe McGee, helps him remember how to fly. Still smarting from Kit's presumed betrayal, Baloo quits his job and flies away.

Airplane Jane is an airplane pilot from the TV show TaleSpin. This hippo learned to fly from Baloo (it reputedly took her a minute), and she shares almost the same mannerisms and behavior as her former mentor.

It used to belong to Baloo von Bruinwald, the founder of the company before his sidekick Kit Cloudkicker took over the company. It is currently owned by Molly Cunningham after the bank sold the seaplane to her. The Sea Duck originally appeared in the 1990-1991 Disney Afternoon series TaleSpin.
