• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

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.

looks like Waco YMF-5 same as the Alabeo offering released a while back

It sure looks good
 
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

Well whatever it is - it will be welcome and since you posted this news and mentioned Simon - I decided to retrieve the Ultimate Bipe he made some while back for FSX - freeware - and a beauty

A real fun flier that looks superb inside and out! and the link is right on this page in the aircraft freeware list or here: <style type="text/css"><!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--></style>http://library.avsim.net/download.php?DLID=142870
