• The Biplane Forum is a large global active community of biplane builders, owners and pilots. From Pitts to Skybolts, to older barnstormers, all types are welcome. In addition to our active community, our content boasts exhaustive technical information which is often sought after for projects and maintenance. This information has accumulated over the 12+ years the forum has been in existence.

    The Biplane Forum is a private community. Subscriptions are only $49.99/year or $6.99/month to gain access to this great community and unmatched source of information not found anywhere else on the web. We are also a great resource for non biplane users, since many GA aircraft are built the same way (fabric and tube construction). Annual membership also comes with two BiplaneForum.com decals.

The reason I ask is because Aircraft Spruce sells only 3" and 12" vinyl number strips and when I asked about 2" numbers they said 3" numbers are the requirement. I looked up FAR 45.2E and it still says 2" numbers are legal for 'antique' airplanes which (I believe) would include the Pitts airplanes since they date back to 1943.

What's the latest guidance on this subject? I want to change the N-number on my S-2A but I do not want to be forced to go to larger numbers. Thanks......
