• 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.

Hi all,

I think if I spend one more evening in the basement I will have all the parts to make all the 1/4" ribs done. I still need the triangular end pieces for the short ribs and the as well as the upper and lower capstrips for the short and center section. I should be able to complete that in one evening. Here is a picture of the pile of rough cut parts. I'll do the final fitting with a disk sander as I'm assembling ribs. I hope that sometime this weekend I will be posting pictures of completed ribs.

Cheers,

David
