Not the Stearman, Ram-bro; although the Stearman is still a great plane. My bride and I have both been up in one recently. You're more than twenty years off; but here's another clue to help out. Thanks; Ernie P.
What warbird do I describe?
Clues:
1. This aircraft was primarily utilized as a trainer.
2. It was often referred to by a particular name; although that name properly belonged to an earlier model of the plane.
3. The first aircraft of this type was actually purchased by the navy.
4. Used by both the army and navy.
5. A high scoring ace was trained on, among others, this aircraft.
6. He was in the navy.
7. More than 100 were produced; quite a number for the time.
