• 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.



Good source of Titanium

I just bought a 12 x 36 sheet of .050" 6AL4V titanium from this guy on eBay, planning to make fuel tank straps. He only charged me $15 for shipping, and the TI was reasonable too. Best part is he sent a 25 x 36 sheet instead of 12 x 36 in a packaging error and said "don't worry about it...use the extra for something else". It's aerospace "AMS T 9046 AB-1" Grade 5 stuff. Very nice. Seems like a good guy, and a good source for TI.

Here's his card.

If anybody needs TI fuel tank straps, let me know. I'll only be using the first 8-10" of this sheet to cut my fuel tank straps.
