• 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 had initially considered to cover the upper and lower parts of the I-struts with aluminium sheet, but now I think it will look much better with fabric covering.
But looking at them it seems to be difficult to get a nice transition of the fabric at the sharp angles where the round support tubes meets the streamline tube.
I am sure somebody here knows a good way to cover these struts,
