• 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 need help from those who have die spring shock struts.
The bungie struts that i have are made per plans but the gear is sucked in quite a bit and i can not imagine the weight of the completed plane deflecting
the bungies enough to have the wheels track with no camber.
Do i make the die spring struts the same length as the bungies or...?
