• 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.

Just installed an overhauled engine and a new inverted system. Have about 20 hours on it and the oil consumption has been virtually zero since the install. Did an oil change at 10 hours, about to do another one. Want to op check the inverted system in flight. My mechanic is vague on how long to wait. Still running mineral oil. Any thoughts?

Engine is an 0435-a.
