Stearman PT-17 Flight Demo | Hangar Talk | Planes of Fame
Pilot & Mechanic Pete Blood tells us about Planes of Fame Air Museum's Stearman PT-17, aviation history, WWII pilot training, and what it's like to fly the vintage aircraft.
Planes of Fame is currently closed due to COVID-19 and had to cancel our favorite event, our annual airshow. We are in for turbulent times ahead. If you are a WWII aircraft enthusiast or someone who appreciates aviation history and would like to support Planes of Fame Air Museum, you can:

I had the pleasure of being part owner of two different Stearmans in a twenty year time period. I have many many hours of poking holes through the clouds !
I'm glad to see the KZread channel finally used some more, keep making those videos guys!

Stearmans are always a favorite for me. Not fast but a whole lot of fun. Thanks for sharing this great aircraft without music.
Thx, not only for the video but also for preserving the history of aviation. I envy you and all associated with your fine organization. Keep em flying!

Thank you! All credit goes to Pete and our volunteer mechanics!
Thanks for the upload. Quite a contrast between the Stearman and the Citation I in the hangar.....the Stearman is the better looking and much more interesting aircraft by far. Wright Flyer, USAF (1968-1972).
Pete!! ☺️ I can’t wait for life to get back to normal and be back at the museum ❤️

I would like to suggest that the next video be about the Hanriot HD.1

Thank you for the suggestion!
I kind of wish Boeing still made these. I can see that there would still be a market for use as a crop-duster. Plus, it looks fun to fly. I can't fly a plane because of a physical disability but I've always been fascinated by aviation.
i would see this fly over my house lol cool!
I'd love to go up in one
Is this the same red Stearman that was used in the movie Space Cowboys back in 2000 that Tommy Lee Jones flew?
Why is there no tail number?
needs the stripes back
Howd you keep your hat on when taxiing!
