I know that plane, it was one of Greg's from his museum at KANE in MN.
Looks like you had a great trip, I watched the video too, thanks.

Great video. What a trip! One day I will revive my square tail Stearman web page.

Larry Tobin flew his C-3B from Washington State to NYC to San Francisco in company with Addison Pemberton's Boeing 40 a few years back as part of an officially sanctioned Air Mail commeration.

Both aircraft are still airworthy in the WAAAM in Hood River, Oregon.

Felts Field still has two "square tail" Stearmans...both restored Speedmails (one belongs to Pemberton, it is his favorite) and one other is 100 miles away in Lewiston, Idaho.
