First flight of my Stearman after the rebuild. Took off, tail heavy even though the CG was technically spot on. Figured out quickly she needed high rates, flicked in, got her under control. Trimmed it out and also trimmed in a lot of right aileron then she flew fine, but knew landing would be tricky. One landing, rolled out, tipped over slowly. Second landing tip stalled, landed on and broke the rght wing. No other damage. Should have her fixed with a couple of hours work. Clearly she needs to come in with power on.
