• 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.

Does anyone know of biplanes for rent with competent instructors in the greater Seattle area (within a couple hours' flight)? My BFR is due soon, and as long as I'm blowing cash on instruction, I might as well do something new. I contacted Olde Thyme Aviation's Stearman instructor, and he's not willing to do it "due to the legal implications" of performing a BFR. I know of Will Allen and his Pitts, but I think I'd like to ease into things rather than jumping right on the most difficult option out of the gate. Gotta work my way up from the Champ. ;)

I'd appreciate any thoughts on local options. It may not be a practical idea, but I figured I'd check it out before looking for something else.
