• 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.

Forgive my ignorance please i did not build the plane. I have an eaa biplane i was wanting to take the landing gear off to do some axle work on. My question is how do i go about supporting the plane so i can take the gear off? I have an engine hoist but thought that would be too much stress on the engine mounts. Do i make padded table of sorts and use the bottom wings sitting on top of the padded table? I was concerned about damage to the fabric/ paint and or ribs by doing that. Suggestion would be appreciated
