1942 Steerman // Showstopper // N71WR
This 1942 Boeing PT-17 Stearman was surplused by the USAF and used at a Chicago vocational school until the late 1980s. Restored in 1995 at ~1,700 TTAF, it received new wing wood, cables, wiring, hardware, Ceconite 102 covering, and overhauled instruments. Always hangared and never used for spraying or dusting, it’s been flown purely for fun. With two years of clean Blackstone oil analysis and well-documented maintenance, this Stearman is smooth, strong, and ready to fly.
