• 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.

Hi all,

Curious about why the brake pedals would be connected inboard like this - I suspect it may be to reduce the (minimal) torsion around the vertical part of the brake pedal as it connects to the rudder pedal? Is there a reason I shouldn't move these rods to the outboard side of the pedal? Right now the passenger foot room is pretty limited there... the other option would be to just delete the pax brakes... I try to make sure my pax are fully briefed and aren't idiots but hey, honest mistakes happen.

Cheers,

jpr
