Description
The Stearman (Boeing) Model 75 is a biplane used as a military trainer aircraft, of which at least 10,626 were built in the United States during the 1930s and 1940s. Stearman Aircraft became a subsidiary of Boeing in 1934.
I rode in the Stearman in my picture today. it was a blast! really literally when I would stick my head out the side to compose a picture. for the most part I just pointed and shot. I really enjoyed it. the wind was calm and the weather mostly clear except for haze.
I could not take a picture without including the wings so I did just that.

great photo of this sweet ride
good. you still young at heart
my dogs would not miss me anyway as long as someone would give them water and food!!
Good for you. Cool aircraft
Fantastic! You are a lucky guy to get a ride in this cool airplane!
Good for you! Looks like a nice sturdy little number. Generally, you wouldn't get me in a single engine plane, especially the little crappy ones you see today. Strange thing about me. I have acrophobia, but being in a plane or helicopter I am just fine.
I am sooooooo envious! LOL That would be a thrill, indeed! Great shot of this classic beauty, Richard!
Hope to be back full time in a few weeks...
Aaaahhh! You lucky dog. You make me jealous! I love those vintage planes! I'm thinking about making the glider license, but this is still not the same like flying those WWII planes!
It sounds like you had a blast! And in a beautiful plane, too.
I like such old airplane, superb capture, Richard!
that must have been a wonderful flight
Very beautiful! Excellent!
Sounds like fun, great capture!
Cool plane!
That must have been a thrilling ride, Richard! Very detailed capture.
Fantastic shot.
You are braver than I am. I would be happy just to stay on the ground and wave to you. Fabulous photos!
A cousin flew in one plane like that (I dont remember the name), fifty years ago. He went sometimes above my grandmother garden in Champagne near Troyes. Great fun.
LOL - nicely done!!!
Excellent!
Awesome pland and very great shot Richard !!!
