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 found wear spots in both the roll wires of our new to us AcroSport 2. They are item 3 in the below picture. Please let me know if you have any that are in good shape. Crazy what I’m finding on a plane “just out of its condition inspection”. I’ll NEVER buy a plane again on pictures and videos alone without going and looking. I’d bought several planes that way before but this one the guy selling was a absolute liar and a “tractor mechanic” At Best! Some people shouldn’t be allowed to even own a plane much less work on it! Anyway, let me know if you have any of the rolls wires. I’ll post of a pic of the two damaged ones when I’m at hangar tomorrow.
