Their designs are a half-century apart and their intended use quite different. Nonetheless, the Boeing Model 75, forever known unofficially as the Stearman, and the Sukhoi Su-26 proved very popular for aerobatic display flying before air show audiences around the world. In this 9-page booklet, we fly a formation photo shoot along the shore of Lake Ontario with aerobatic pilots John Mohr and Rick Volker ahead of the 2007 Canadian International Air Show. Also included is some background information about the pilots and the two aircraft types along with a comparison of the Boeing PT-17 and Sukhoi Su-26.
