Ballance Restored: A Stunning Stinson Flies Home

Sparkling like a jewel in the midsummer sun, a stunning 1934 straight-wing Stinson SR-5A Reliant was proudly poised in front of the VAA Red Barn during #OSH19. Its striking profile was unmistakable, with its angular, vee-type windshield, wide-stance main gear, and large, rounded rudder. This Stinson is more than a beguiling sentinel of the golden age; it’s also a sentimental tribute to the Ballance family’s longtime love for aviation.
