It's amazing what Bob has done in his Hurricane and now with this Stearman with airfile development. His rendition of engine management along with prop management in this aircraft is nothing short of spectacular. 
The expensive payware designers should take note....

Is there a non-crop-dusting version?

All the models are based on crop dusting variants. For non-cropdusting there's Dave Eckart's version for Fs2004.

Yeah, I already got that. Oh, well, too bad.
(Nothing against the model or the modeler, I've just got a block about crop dusters. One killed a friend of mine.)

Hi fellow simmers, First, I would like to congratulate Robert Sanderson and his contributors for a fantastic materpiece. I recall many many moons ago when I was a line-boy at Cartierville airport, those Stearmans from Wheeler Air Lines in St. Jovite, (a big crop dusting contractor), often stopped overnight at Cartierville Airport on their way to New Brunswick. One morning, very early, I saw about thirty or more of them take off in formation. WOW, those empty grinders were off the ground in no time and climbing like a bat our of hell. What a sight and the sound of those radials....... This is a not so sure reproduction from Ye Olde Memory. Guess, I am just 'enjoying' good souvenirs. If someone has photos, I will correct it. I could not find any.  I'll do one or two others and post then. Cheers, Leon Louis |
