• 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 have had to cut the fabric on the left upper aileron and right lower aileron to tighten the hinges, because of to much play. I do not know if the aircraft is covered in ceconite or poly-fiber and have neither the tools or chemicals to repair at this time.
Can I use an inspection plate with screws securing the plate to the inspection ring?
I do not know if this has ever been done or even if it is safe to do so.
