A look at the past Motorists driving north out of Sparta on Route 4 last week couldn’t miss this 1945 Stearman WWII trainer flying over their heads. Paul Cornelius, who co-owns the plane with Marvin Campbell, was having a little fun on the east-west airstrip repeatedly taking off and landing (called a touch and go). The plane, based at Sparta’s Hunter Field, was purchased by the men 10 years ago with its pieces in a basket. Almost 4,000 man-hours later, it had been completely rebuilt and was ready to fly.
