The Stearman was a primary trainer used by both the US Navy and US Army Air Corp during WWII. Over half our pilots received their initial flight training in a Stearman. About 10,000 were manufactured by Boeing in Wichita Kansas from 1937 to 1945. Our plane was delivered to the US Army Air Corp in May of 1944 and trained pilot until the war ended in August 1945.
After the war, the Stearman became the backbone of the crop dusting industry. Known for their rugged construction and wonderful flying qualities, they are now onto their third career in the sport aviation community.
The Stearman Restorers Association is dedicated to the preservation, restoration, flying and safety of Stearman Aircraft through the education of both members and the public. We encourage those with an interest in Stearmans to visit their site.

The plane was acquired in 1989 and spent 7 years undergoing a total ground up restoration. Every component was disassembled and inspected. Practically every nut, bolt, bearing and bushing was replaced. All wing wood was replaced and an overhauled engine and new propeller installed. In April 2017, after 20 years of faithful service, the engine was replaced with a freshly overhauled unit. In Aug 2020, a new propeller was installed. In many respects, the plane is practically new.
