• 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.

Hello to all,

I wish to pose a question to everyone in the group that cares to respond. First, I am new flying. I will probably have minimal hours by the time I finish building. Let's say 50 to 100 hours of flight time. I read in several places that biplanes are difficult to fly. In other places I read that they are no more difficult to fly than any other plane. I have the plans for the Stewart Foo Fighter, to give reference. This aircraft is not really an acrobatic type, as I am not really interested in a fully acrobatic plane. Any feedback would be appreciated.
