Stearman Wings

We rebuild Stearman wings as requested by the customer. We use only Boeing factory drawings, and the original certified materials such as Stika Spruce, Mahagony plywood and nails. Rib gussets are die stamped, ribs are built on precise metal fixtures and spars are precision drilled.

The steel hardware is cadmium plated and baked and the steel bolts are replaced.  All aluminum hardware is stripped, inspected and repainted using epoxy chromate.  On the lower wings the wing walk is made from one piece of 3/16” Mahagony plywood and steam formed.   It is not built of wood pieces like others do. Wing tips are laminated just like the original tips, as per the drawings. All of our wings are hand varnished with epoxy varnish. We also cover and paint wing panels if requested using the Stitts process.
