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.
