• 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.

Paul Smith, Hawk owner of Tucson Az., informed me of some sad news last week. Bill Tuttle, of the Pensacola Fl. area, owner of a Hawk painted up like the Air Force Thunderbirds, has passed away. I knew he was retired military and loved the Hawk. Last I talked with him, he was redoing the bird and going to paint it in the colors of the New Orleans Saints. I understand that Paul Smith, 1 520 591 4551, now has the plane and is interested in selling it and his own. I have attached a photo of Bill, and it speaks for itself in telling what type of personality that he was.
