The Curtiss employees nicknamed the SO3C the 'Reluctant Dragon' (reluctant to take off and always dragging). It summed up its dismal operational life. It was under-powered, overweight and suffered from being rushed into service without adequate testing and re-engineering. It is incredible that over 700 of these aircraft could have been produced.
