• 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.



Ever feel like the plane is just barely bolted together?

Ferried an airplane some time ago. It had just had a prebuy done by an A&P/IA who came highly recommended...

New owner sent me this pic of the engine case.

Dubious airworthiness...

Think there's something missing here!

Definitely learned from this experience. You are solely responsible as PIC for the safety of the flight. And apparently, check that the d*mn engine is bolted together.
