N707TY/3 Boeing Stearman N2S-1/R985 Kaydet (A75N1) Breitling Wingwalkers (AeroSuperBatics) - Day 2 Avalon 2013 Australian International Airshow. File: N707TJ_N5057V_YMAV_20130227_8354
A real all time classic aircraft. Photographed parked up in a wartime blast pen at North Weald Airfield, Essex on the day of the North Weald Centenary Air Fete.
Introduced in 1934 over 10,000 had been built by the end of production in 1945. Thought to be about 1,000 still in flying condition worldwide today.
I'm struggling to find out what is really the official model name for this particular aircraft. Boeing Model 75 I believe is correct, but Stearman is the more familiar name.

Flying wires, radial engines...humble beginnings. :-)
The Stearman (Boeing) Model 75 is a biplane used as a military trainer aircraft, of which at least 8,584 were built in the United States during the 1930s and 1940s.[1] Stearman Aircraft became a subsidiary of Boeing in 1934. Widely known as the Stearman, Boeing Stearman or Kaydet, it served as a primary trainer for the USAAF, the USN (as the NS & N2S), and with the RCAF as the Kaydet throughout World War II. After the conflict was over, thousands of surplus aircraft were sold on the civil market. In the immediate post-war years they became popular as crop dusters, sports planes, and for aerobatic and wing walking use in airshows.

Built in 1941, this Stearman N2S-3 (Boeing-Stearman Model 75) has been restored to pristine condition. The US Navy took delivery of 1,875 of these N2S-3's with the R-670-4 engine. The N2S-3 was one of seven different variations for the US Navy.
If not for the modern car, this would be a very interesting historical backdrop. Remember Skagit Regional Airport served as a Naval Outlying Field in WWII.

Once the Parade of Planes was over and the aircraft were in position on three sides of the Convention Center, there was naturally a lot of interest and pedestrian movement so I concentrated mostly on tight shots.
This is Boeing-Stearman N2S-3 Kaydet N63555.
