• 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 recently replaced some fuel lines on my project from the center section to the fuselage. The last rendition had a Y that was unsupported between the cabanes. Apparently it worked fine but was hard to look at.

The new lines follow the cabanes down, I was thinking of splitting a piece of hose to make a cushion and then strapping the lines to the cabanes. I hadn’t decided what I should use to attach them. Tape, aluminum strap? Leather ties or am I better to leave them without?

If you have any good ideas, show me.
Thanks, Dan.
