Another Stearman today.
Just a follow on to yesterday’s post. If you missed it, check for my Stearman Saturday post.

Following World War II and the down sizing of the military, many Stearman were auctioned of to private owners. They became very popular as crop dusters. Thanks to their post war use as crop dusters, many Stearman survive to this day. Today, the Stearman has gained a new career as an airshow and open cockpit ride aircraft.
