Lake City Fly-in 2018 | Boeing Stearman Model 75 A Stearman represents the true nature of a grassroots fly-in. The Model 75 was introduced to the US Army Air Forces as a trainer in 1934 and remained in production until the end of WWII. It’s relatively easy to fly and simple to maintain. After the war, the demand for Stearmans remained high; used mostly as agricultural crop dusters and aerobatic air show performers. Many are still airworthy today.
