• 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.

I know this is not about biplanes, but one of my students has purchased a Piper Pacer ( Tripacer put back into a tailwheel Pacer) in Wisconsin and wants me to ferry it back to California. I have lots of tailwheel time in Starduster Too, Acroduster One, Skybolt, Citabria, J3/Cub and Cessna 140, but no time in a Pacer. What are they like to fly/ What are some speeds I should consider? ( I believe it has 150 hp) What are some gotcha's I should be careful of? Any and all info would be helpful. I have flown my SD2 to Oshkosh and back 3 times so know the routes well
