• 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, lapsed acro pilot here.

I was an IAC member in Northern Virginia back in the late 90's and in Florida in the mid-2000's. I competed at sportsman level in a few Florida contests in '05 and '06 when I wasn't deployed in the military. At the time I had a 1/4 share of a decathlon. When I retired in '08 and started my own business, I stopped flying to conserve cash flow.

Took a while to get the business rolling, and expenses increased with 2 kids in school. Now the money is better and and I'm starting to get the bug again. Next logical step is a Pitts S1C or S1S.
