• 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 am trying to find technical info on how to repair nicks or small damage of flying and landing wires. How big nicks can be polished out safely and what is the best procedure? I thought I'd find something in AC 43.13-1B "Acceptable Methods..." but I don't seem to find it. Brunton has a page on care and maintenance but it does not tell what to do if there are nicks etc (http://www.streamlinewires.com/metric.htm). Any chance anybody has a link to some technical information? It would be much appreciated!

Cheers,

Trex
