• 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 think I already know the answer but I will ask anyway. In an effort to keep my canopy as low as possible I would like to use a backpack chute. I would like to do the "carbon recess Smizo mod" of 2" to 3" to keep my eyes far enough from the panel that I can read it. Unfortunately, I have a tube running across the seat back marked with the spring clamp in the photo's.
Is there any way I can remove or reposition this tube that won't compromise the integrity of the fuselage ?
Thank you,
Randy
