Vintage Aircraft

The 1st aircraft a cadet would fly during flight training prior to and during World War II. Known for its stability and strength, the Stearman was a reliable primary trainer and remains a popular classic today. Vintage Aircraft Company has three 1942 Stearmans modified to accommodate 2 passengers in the front cockpit. The seat is 32 across so the seating is cozy. World War II cadets flew in a series of three aircraft: Primary, Basic and Advanced trainers. The North American AT-6 (Texan or SNJ-4) was an Advanced Trainer designed to give cadets a taste for the higher speeds and more complex systems of fighters.
