    • 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.
    • 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 took off with 12 gallons for a quick flight....I was having too much fun and flew a little longer than I had planned. I was down to about 6 to 7 gallons when I rolled upside down for about 15 sec.....I slow rolled to right side up and it quit....I pulled the power back and pumped the wobble pump twice and the engine came back to life...I have done the maneuver many times and even a couple of times earlier in this flight....I am thinking this might be the lowest fuel level I have flown with inverted....Any help with this one would be great. It got my attention to say the least....thanks for any insight.
