Stearman became a subsidiary of Boeing in 1934. Widely known as the Stearman , Boeing Stearman or Kaydet , it served as a Primary trainer for the USAAF , as a basic trainer for the USN (as the NS1 & N2S), and with the RCAF as the Kaydet throughout World War II . After the conflict was over, thousands of surplus aircraft were sold on the civil market. In the immediate post-war years they became popular as crop dusters and as sports planes .The Kaydet was a conventional biplane of rugged construction with large, fixed tailwheel undercarriage, and accommodation for the student and instructor in open cockpits in tandem. The radial engine was usually uncowled, although some Stearman operators choose to cowl the engine, most notably the Red Baron Stearman Squadron . Stearman Aircraft Corporation was an aircraft manufacturer established by Lloyd Stearman at Wichita, Kansas in 1927 . Two years later, he sold it to the United Aircraft and Transport Corporation .In September 1934 , United was forced to separate its airline and aircraft manufacturing operations. At this time, Boeing became a separate business once again, and Stearman was made a subsidiary of it. Stearman officially ceased to operate as a brand at this point, but it was at this same time that the Stearman plant had created its most successful and enduring product, the Model 75 "Kaydet" that would become the main primary trainer aircraft for the US military during World War II . The trainees who flew them called this biplane the "yellow peril". [1] Although the Stearman company designed a range of other aircraft, the Model 75s have come to be known simply as "Stearmans" or "Boeing Stearmans".In 2005 , Boeing sold the civil portion of the former Stearman operations to Onex , forming Spirit AeroSystems , though they have retained the military operations.A national Stearman fly-in is held every year around Labor Day in Galesburg, IL .
