• 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.

Talking to a friend today about odd shaped inspection covers for fabric. He mentioned using a J-clip on the fuselage tubing. They press on over the tubing, then u push on a nutplate on to the tab. Anyone know the correct term and where I can source them (searched a lot already)?

I forgot to weld tabs on, so I was planning on making an odd shaped inspection cover and glass frame for access near the tail, but I do like this j clip approach, if I can source some....
