• 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 new to me Pitts was delivered today by my friend Chad Graveson. He made to PA from Big Sandy Montana in 2.5 days courtesy of some fine airmanship and excellent tailwinds. He left out with my Eagle Monday morning and dropped it off in Montana got in the Pitts and came right back. He lost one day to low ceilings, pretty incredible round trip. It serial number 1001, Pitts S-2S, N260TC. It was owned originally by Tom Collier of IAC fame. I'll fly it for the first time Tomorrow, I've been working on this deal for quite a few months and I'm happy to say it's here finally. Thanks to all who helped me with questions and advice along the way. I attached a photo below, it weighs 1115 pounds empty and has a Lycon engine swinging a whirlwind 3 blade.
