• 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 am looking at Beej's photos of the lovely fabric work around the tail area of his Skybolt. Can anyone give me advice on how to install odd shaped access openings in the fabric? It looks like an aluminium cover attached with #8 screws into nut-plates in a "frame" cemented into the fabric. My question is what is the frame made from and how is it attached to the fabric. Guidance would be much appreciated. Thank you. Jan
