I owned a Starduster II for many years. It was my first airplane & taildragger when I graduated college. It was fun and easy to fly. My buddy had a Skybolt that blew it away aerobatically and was much faster. I then bought a Pitts Special and would never go back to this type of biplane. I sold my Starduster II to a Doctor who nearly crashed it on takeoff. It has since been destroyed in another accident.

Still like to watch Starduster videos though eh?
Wondering if I could fly one without tearing it up : )
That airspeed indicator looks a little confused...
a little slower than the extra aint it?
Only slightly
