Seems to be in the Houston area. I am a former owner, although not the last owner. Just curious what kind of shape the old girl is in now!

Used to be yellow with a green band on the fuselage, but the fabric was old so it may have been recovered.

Boo hoo! :(

I had hoped she's be a little better off than that...

If you ever happen by there again I'd like to see more pictures and hear the story.

Thanks,

BK

BDK,

Robbie Vajdos restores Stearmans.

In the same hangar, there were other Stearman fuselages, that in due time will be restored.

I am sure that this is what was happening with this particular airplane.

Saludos,


Tulio
