• 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.

Just joined the forum. Our EAA chapter in Clearwater, FLpurchased an ongoing project in the Atlanta area a couple of months ago. We are starting with the fuselage frame, tail feathers,2 of 4assembled wings, center sectionand most of the metal wing fittings. We have been reading with interest the discussion of the trailing edge fabrication, and the discussion of the aileron control difficiencies. We have already eliminated the 1/4" hinge bushings in favor of 5/16", and plan to use NAS bolts in the bell crank hinges. We are also looking at aileron control stops, and would be interested how others have handled this. Finally, we would love to visit others in our region who are building or have a finishedAcroduster II we could take a look at. We would be happy to return the favor.
