Relativistic beaming and the nuclei of double-lobed radio quasarsA complete sample of double-lobed 3CR quasars with minimal orientation bias is defined. Properties of these objects on the greater than kpc scale are consistent with the simple beaming model for their nuclei. VLBI maps of six nuclei reveal 'core-jet' structures. Both nuclei mapped at multiple epochs are modestly superluminal. The distribution of apparent velocities in this sample will provide a stringent test of beaming.
