How about setting each of these up at the field. How much time, difficulty, etc?
So far as the Waco's concerned, not much of either.
I do have to take the wings off for transport. But I leave all the N struts and cabanes attached to the top wing, so assembly is simply bolting the bottom wing on, then attaching the cabanes to the fuse and the N struts to the bottom wing. That's 8 4-40 bolts. I haven't timed it, but it's no more than 10 minutes, tops. Less if I'm not shooting the breeze or otherwise distracted.
Don't know about the Stearman or Hawk....
