About the WACO Biplane:
The WACO UPF-7 was built in the early 1930's and 40's. The open cockpit biplane was widely used during WWII to train for Army Air Corps, Navy or Marine pilots. The WACO Biplane was a primary trainer that young military pilots such as Astronaut/Senator John Glenn, top Navy ace Alexander Vraciu, top World War II ace Major Richard Bong, and triple ace Bud Anderson most likely flew at some point in their training.
