• 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.

Gentlemen,
As I sit here quarantined, I suddenly realize that I need a project. I have a ratty S2A with a nice low time airframe and new engine and prop. I have decided to recover, repaint, and replace the canopy in the ratty bird. I have recovered 2 airplanes long ago but have been a little out of the loop since. Where can I get a suggested materials list for the S2A as well as purchase materials from the most economical source? I have a 1987 S1-T and plan on duplicating the paint job on the S2A. Maybe I could ship my ailerons to Wes and get his spade STC done as well. Thanks for the help. Attached is a picture of my S1-T and 180.
Tracey
