'''The Stearman''' ([[:Category:Boeing|Boeing]]) '''Model 75''' is a biplane, of which at least 9,783 were built in the United States during the 1930s and 1940s as a [[:Category:Military aircraft|military]] trainer [[aircraft]]. 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 NS & 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 Stearman''' ([[:Category:Boeing|Boeing]]) '''Model 75''' is a biplane, of which at least 9,783 were built in the United States during the 1930s and 1940s as a [[:Category:Military aircraft|military]] trainer [[aircraft]].
