About the Boeing Stearman
The Boeing Stearman (Model 75, the PT-17/N2S Kaydet) is the iconic American primary trainer of WWII — a rugged radial-engined biplane with open cockpits that has become one of the most cherished and flyable warbirds. Strong, honest and endlessly characterful, Stearmans are flown for fun, airshow, formation and barnstorming, with a deep support and parts community. Many have been re-engined (Continental, Lycoming, Jacobs, or larger radials) and restored to a high standard.

Buying a Used Boeing Stearman
When buying a Boeing Stearman, the biggest value drivers are engine time since overhaul, maintenance-record completeness, damage history and avionics.
What to check before buying
- Engine time to overhaul — hours and years remaining drive price more than total airframe time.
- Logbook completeness — continuous, gap-free maintenance records protect value.
- Damage history — any prior accident or incident; cross-check the registration against accident databases.
- Avionics — a modern glass panel vs legacy steam gauges materially changes price.
- Pre-buy inspection — always commission an independent inspection by a type-experienced mechanic before money changes hands.
