So, I think I mentioned we hold our model meetings at our local museum, The Atlantic Canada Aviation Museum (which I volunteer at as well) amongst the aircraft, well we just acquired this beauty just before Christmas!
I just got to see it for the first time last weekend, a Boeing Stearman
We had to take the wings off to display it as you can see, space is a premium. Got it tucked in between the Canso, Harvard and the Sabre
Rear cockpit
Forward cockpit
I understand the owner tried to sell it for years but had no buyers so he donated it. I guess it is just 1 step/certification from fly worthy status but it will likely never fly again. A beautiful plane though to add to the collection!
