The N2S-5 is a biplane used as a military primary training aircraft during WWII. At least 8,584 of these aircraft were built in the United States in the 1930's and 1940's. Originally built by Stearman Aircraft which became a subsidiary of Boeing in 1934, this model of airfract is widely known simply as the "Stearman," or "Kaydet." These aircraft served as the primary trainer for the USN throughought WWII. After the Second World War thousands of suplus aircraft were sold on to the civilian market and in the immediate post-war years they became very poular as crop dusters, sport planes and for aerobatic and wing walking use at air shows.
