We have another custom 450 Stearman in the shop right now. It's in for new wings, recover and repaint. It's moving along nicely and should start going together soon. Posted are photos of the cover and paint process. It's going to be insignia blue and cream similar to the ZPF-7 we finished at the beginning of the year. We'll share some photos once it goes into final assembly.
Thanks for checking in!

Stearman 6CD Progress.
More progress on the Doyle Stearman! The wings and controls are all rigged and ready. Now for the fresh engine install. Inverted systems, fuel injection and show smoke are on the menu. Chuck can't imagine being all shiny and loud without some upside down smoke action! Thanks for checking in.

Rolling the Stearman
A few years back the guys made a clever rotisserie for fuselages while in build up and paint. They used an electric ATV winch motor, chain and sprockets to power the rotisserie. SO.....before we started to mount the wings I couldn't resist trying Chucks competition harnesses out.
