• 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.

Been reading the forum for a while, but this is my first post. I’ve always wanted to build an airplane, and have been a fan of the Skybolt for years. I finally got the plans for Christmas with the intent to start from scratch this year. Well, thanks to another builder who has had to give up his ‘bolt project, I now have a completed fuselage and tail feathers, wing kit (standard), gear, wheels, brakes, fuel tank, IO-540 and CS prop sitting in my garage.<?:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:eek:ffice:eek:ffice" />
Looks like once I get this stuff sorted out I’ll be disproving the old adage that there are no dumb questions. For now, this has bumped me a couple of years up on my build schedule, so I don’t even know what dumb questions to ask yet.
