• 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.

As many of us have experimental aircraft I have a question regarding engine parts. What are the reasons for and against having a billet crankshaft made to replace incredibly overpriced crankshafts in antique technology legacy engines? I have an C85 I want to overhaul as a stroker and O-200 cranks have become somewhat difficult to come by, so I thought why not just have some made. Thoughs?
