Great Lakes 2T-1A-2 for Sale — Classic American Biplane Trainer

The Great Lakes 2T-1A-2 is one of America's most beloved biplane trainers — an aircraft whose lineage extends back to the original Great Lakes design of the 1920s and whose modern production version has continued to delight aerobatic pilots, warbird enthusiasts, and biplane lovers since the 1970s when Great Lakes Aircraft Company revived the design. The 2T-1A-2 combines the authentic biplane experience of open-cockpit tandem flying with modern Lycoming engine reliability to create an aircraft that feels genuinely vintage while operating with the dependability that modern pilots expect.

The Great Lakes Experience

Flying the Great Lakes is experiencing American biplane aviation at its most authentic. The tandem open cockpit, responsive controls, and the sound and feel of the Lycoming O-320 turning a wooden propeller deliver a sensory experience that no enclosed modern aircraft approaches. The aircraft is certified in the aerobatic category, making it suitable for basic aerobatic training and personal aerobatic flying, and its gentle handling characteristics make it accessible to pilots transitioning from tricycle-gear trainers who want to develop tailwheel and biplane skills simultaneously. The Great Lakes community maintains strong type support through an active owners association.
