    Markings Applied: 202, U.S. NAVY 202, 5736, N2S-5
    It is worth noting this is the second Stearman to carry the civil registration N2PP. The first was also owned by the same owner and more significantly was also painted exactly as this one is and by Decemeber 2012 still was. Even though marked the same these are two completely different identities.

    To Air Zoo Aerospace and Science Experience, Kalamazoo/Battle Creek International Airport, Kalamazoo, MI.
