• 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.

I thought the install of the canopy was hard the first time around but this was almost enough to think about a hangar fire. I had recycled mounting brackets when I put this canopy on the Acroduster and also had to cut almost 8" off the back to make it fit the AD2. I had to get it in the exact same place to reuse the trim fairings and make a new Al fairing on the rear.

Whatever, I like the result. I even got the windshield to fit better. This is the final deal. If Marcia wants more "open cockpit" than sliding the canopy back she can remove this thing herself.

I will need some vents.
