This is a Stearman N2S-3, built in 1942 along with 300 others in Wichita, Kansas, for pilot training. The Stearman company was founded by Lloyd Stearman in 1927 in Venice, California and merged with the Boeing Company in 1934.
This plane was restored in 1987 and purchased in May 1990 by author Steven Coonts, a former Naval pilot who flew the Grumman A-6 Intruder. In 1991, he took off from Boulder, Colorado and flew around the U.S. in this Stearman on a three-month trip that resulted in his book, THE CANNIBAL QUEEN. Coonts sold the plane in 1998.
