• 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.

Is there any advantage to buying a newer eagle versus buying one that is slightly older? Case and point there's a 03 eagle for 78k and then there's a 89 for 57 on barnstormers. Engine and prop times are pretty close. I'm new to looking for eagles and I'm aware of some of the main faults that they have. I realize that every plane is different but just wondering if there where differences in the kits that are worth spending the extra money or do the spars tend to have problems over time. I use to own a wood spar decathlon and honestly I never had any problems.

By the way if anyone knows of a good eagle around the Dallas area shoot me a message.
