• 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.

My 1997 S2B came with an API tailwheel installed and no paperwork included in the logs. I've been asking around and some people say it's a simple, standard STC while others say it's a complicated 337 that needs engineering diagrams and field approval. I'm pretty new to owning a certified airplane (I've owned a Starduster Too for 10 years). I want my logs setup properly and I know that lots of people have legally mounted the API tailwheel on Pitts S2B and S2C airplanes. Anyone out there know anything about it? Anyone out there willing to send me a pic of your own logbooks/337/STC etc?

thanks a bunch!
