Anyone photographed Stearman N60238 (Houston?)

Wed Mar 12, 2008 10:38 pm

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.

Haven't seen it at Ellington. Will keep a lookout for it.

Have you tried asking about it on the SRA's board?

Nope! Just curious if any of the photogs have snapped a few of it.

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,

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
