• 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.

Hi guys , I’m interested is getting a starduster sa100. I have seen one as well as eaa biplanes etc with the o290 engines. I know the engine is not supported but what are my options with this engine currently? Should I shy away from a flying plane simply due to the engine? Also how little flying is too little on these engines? Obviously 10 hrs over the last 5 yrs is not enough for me but what is your opinion? I have been putting about 70-80 hrs yr on my sonex so I fly regularly. Thanks Mark Whiddon
