• 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.

Okay guys
I have my fuselage,wing ribs,aileron ribs,and plans and most of the tail feathers.They are all in my shop and I have been going over things.At first I could not make heads or tails out of it but everytime I look it over again I understand it more and more.I have about a dozen tubes to cut and weld on the fuselage.Had it delivered to my friend welding shop and he went over it and said the welds all look great.


Get ready for a ton of questions for the next 4 years or so!
Heres the first.I intend to have my friens shop do all my welding.I have a mig unit.Is is okay to tak the tubes with mig then have him Tig it .
