• 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 folks
I found I have a bit of a brake leak on my Eagle. I have struggled with soft brakes on this machine from the beginning. And it is a pretty simple system, and I don't have any problems with the brakes on all my other planes. The plane sat for a long time with no fluid in it ---- and I have always thought they should be better ----- so might have O rings and things that are bad.

Anyway ---- does anyone know the part number of the master cylinder. I think it is a Cleveland 10-20 or 10-5B ----- but to lazy to get upside down in it and check.

Also is anyone using the Grove or Matco master cylinders in this similar set up?
