Same here Daveroo. When it comes to this airframe and those very similar, they all become Stearman's, lol. To those who are into the Bipes there are obvious differences but generally, they all look the same to me.

It's either a Stearman or a Tigermoth in my book Falcon ;-)
Great looking model Francois and Simon :applause:
I'll take a guess after a bit of digging - is it a Laird LC-RW 450 or similar? Can't say for sure because the engine cowling and front cockpit look a little different...
Certainly a rare bird!

I'd say that's a WACO. Look at the logo on the vertical stabilizer.

Nice - Simon is a terrific modeler - can't wait to see these beauties...will there be a Taperwing?
I'm really interested in a native Waco Taperwing for FSX
