• 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.

It was back in 1985 that I was working on my private pilots license taking lessons at Pietsch Flying Service in Minot, ND. I spent allot of time looking at a pretty red and white Starduster owned by Al Pietsch that was always sitting in the lobby showroom. Fast forward 30 years and now my Starduster is sitting in that exact spot! Two weeks ago with help from a couple friends we hauled the wings and fuselage up there from my farm shop. Last weekend my son and I got it re-assembled. I still have the first engine run and DAR inspection to do but it is getting much closer.
