• 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've been meaning to post these pics for a long time, but only got around to doing it now. This plane, N4714H was built by Danny Sorensen, an active member of this forum. I'll defer to Danny to provide details about the build, but I'll tell you all that it's an absolutely delightful airplane. Extremely well built, and more responsive than a stock S-1S. I bought her from Chris Cox, who's also a forum member, after selling my former S-1S/E to Eric Minnis, who's a Forum member too. (Eric's restoring/rebuilding my old plane, N21JF, to be his custom hot-rod. Can't wait to see it.

Hats off and thanks to Danny for building such a great little plane. It's my honor and privilege to be the caretaker.
