• 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

I have read in the books that sometimes then the tree is cut and it falls on a rock it causes damage. The "WOOD" book from EAA says this but the images are less than good...

Since I buy my Sitka wood from a lumber yard I inspect it myself with help from others. A friend of mine building a "Pou du ciel" had bought a piece of wood with some suspicious lines in.... On my suggestion he did some test and here they are:

Be prepared, A MUST SEE!!!... It’s in French but the video and images speak from themselves...
