• 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.

Saw this Pitts model 12 while I am in Iceland. This plane has flown to Paris and back by an older"legend" pilot from here. He has kepththe plane outside for its whole life and seized the engine inflight about 2 months ago. It looks rough and is not exactly built to plans. He sheeted the wings with plywood and squared off the wing tips. Says he may want to sell it but wants real money for it. Good luck
