• 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'm having my fuselage built by the factory for my S1-11 but would also like to build a second one. My question is, do you put the bends in the longerons first or lay out the sides and tack them then pull them together while tacking the top and bottom? I did read on here about doing top and bottom first also, and if I went that way would it be the same, just pull top and bottom together?

Thanks,
Justin
