I believe "Navy 43-510" should be BuNo. 43510. Navy BuNo's would not contain any dashes (-) in them.

If you e-mail/call NASM, you can get the Aircraft History Card. It's free and usually only takes a couple of weeks. Ask for N2S BuNo 43510.

I believe it was last stationed at NAS Corpus Christi sometime after 1945, I was curious if anyone might have any pictures of it stationed there.

This Stearman was owned by Eric r. Baldwin from 1988 - 2001 until it was wrecked in 2001. I was wondering if anyone has any pictures of it during that time period ? It was operated out of Aurora airport in Colorado giving rides during that time period under Stearman Scenic Rides & Aviation Services Inc. I believe Mr. Baldwin also few with the CAF for a number of years.

He has a new web site : http://oldplanepros.com/About_Us.html
but no pictures of the 1943 A75N1 Stearman N1259V / 300 HP Lycoming
