Certainly a great scene in Tauranga these days.
And yes, the Boeing Stearman is one of the GREAT classics in my book.
As a basic/primary trainer, at least the Americans got the feel of a big round engine straight off. Must have been closer to the feel of a Texan and maybe an easier transition, than say from DH82a to Harvard?
Certainly there's a Stearman in my Lotto Hangar!

There would be one in mine too.Great photos Ykato, thanks for posting them.

I reckon stearman are
