G'day Paul. We were in luck mate. A Stearman came over from Luskintyre, a whole 2 minutes flying time away from Maitland. Here are a few detail pics of the area behind the engine for you. Enjoy and I hope it helps with your model and yours too damo.

BTW Paul, the engine in this one is a "Shaky Jake" Jacobs of 300 hp. The one in the aircraft that I posted before is a Lycoming and the one in the other one you posted is a Continental.

Regrds,
RHB.

G'day damo. That last shot is looking into the front cockpit through the open side panel. I'll post some shots here of various areas of the aeroplane and I'm probably heading up to Luskintyre tomorrow so if the aircraft is still there I'll ask if I can get some shots of the cockpits. I hope these extra shots are a help to you fellas. This first one is of the rear pit.

Image
Now one of the front pit.
Image
And several of the upper wing centre section and cabane struts.

Today that Stearman was at Maitland again so I managed to get some more good detail shots of her. I'll up.road them when I get my landline fixed. It was supposed to be fixed today but when I left for work it hadn't been so I'm not holding out much hope that it will be when I get home tonight.:-)

RHB.

"Up.road" when did you become a Chinaman? :D

I like the Stearman a lot for some reason. May have to add a bi-plane to the stash. Do it up like Commander Rabb's from JAG.
