• 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.

So last year about this time Eric posted the damage caused to his airplane from the installation of the aluminum landing gear. Pretty much the only thing holding the right side of the gear on was the right rudder pedal, which then started to fail. We got the ship to our shop with two options. As Eric states, the sensible less expensive option or the non sensible expensive, but more fun “repair”. It took hardly any convincing from me to go the fun route. So..... I present to you, the rebirth of Eric’s Pitts sporting our V2 landing gear mod, Wolf cowling, New gear to cowl fairings,Ti firewall, custom 4:1 exhaust, forward servo with ram air and a fresh coat of paint fwf.
