• 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 purchased a fuselage built by Danny Sorensen, slightly longer and wider than the stock Pitts. It also has slightly squared off tail surfaces and rod gear. It was shipped to me last fall, FedEx did quite a number on it. So I am repairing one of the longerons and I had to cut out the bent rod that goes between the for and aft cabanes. I have a One Design firewall and cowling from Acro Specialties. Wings are going to be a little different, designed by Doug Dodge. He estimates a 300 degree per second roll rate. Would there be any interest in a build thread fo this project ?
