• 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.

Delivered my elevator to Tony today so everything can be stripped and powder coated together.

Always a cool place to visit, but today was better than most. While talking about header tanks he pulled out couple wooden forms, some clamps, and asked “do you want to learn how to make the end caps?”

Next thing you know I’m hammering away...

First set were a throw away learning experience, but the second set came out fine.
