• 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 everyone,


As I'm about to prime and paint my wing hardware, I'm wondering what I'm supposed to do concerning the parts where a bolt or a bearing will take place (for example the KP4 location on the bellcrank) ? These are to be tight fits so if I paint I won't be able to get the bearing/bolt in place anymore, but if I don't I'm afraid it may rust...
Of course this question does also apply to upper cabane fittings, engine mount fittings, ...
