Essentially a critical piece of aviation history, it is the Stearman cropduster of aviation lore. Drug around by a "1340," lifted by extended wings, and full of hopper tank, it displays the pinnacle of Stearman duster mods in a way that has to be seen to believed.
If you happen to run across it somewhere, stop and take it all in. I believe it is one of the most underrated pieces of aviation history flying today.
I always wanted one of these to be saved. Now, thanks to the Schiffer brothers, I can rest knowing one has. Flying it was pure bonus. Thanks Mike.

I saw the photo of the Stearman and it brought back memories. My late brother Earl S. Wiley was a crop duster pilot working around Milford, Delaware. He flew a 450 Stearman, the company he worked for had two of them. I would be his flagger and also propped the Stearman, washed it, filled the hopper, etc. Me being the kid brother got to do those chores. This was in 1958 I look back on that time with good memories.
