Ok im sure you all know what a Stearman is so i wont go into that.

the problem i have is about 5-10 years ago my Uncle (who lives in australia) gave me a matchbox model of one. it a logo and Royal Air Mail and Australian National Airways LTD on it. these are the only markings and it is painted entirely silver (weather this is true to life or just matchbox saving on money i dont know)

it has copywrite 1991 on it and a code which i guess is the matchbox model no. :SB39

can anyone find out any info on this plane and if it was ever used by the australian royal air force and i would love to see some pictures!

thanks

Richard

edit:

oh yea i will get some pictures of it up tomorrow when i can get some good natural light!

and for the mean time for those of you who dont know what it is its made my Boeing and is used widely for crop dusting and "wing walking" if anyone has seen the crunchy planes...thats them!
