• 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.

Cleaning out my hangar and I decided I'm not going to finish (or start) a biplane project I collected. It's a tricycle gear biplane that's good for parts or a serious restoration if you want something "unique".
It'll need a full teardown inspection and to rebuild the RH wing (I have a set of ribs for it, but no spars). The top wing should be inspected as there's more flex in the center section than there should be (possibly a glue joint or cracked spar, I don't know).
The wheel pants aren't useable.
Has the flying wires in great shape, and a really nice canopy that may fit other aircraft.
The spring and nose gear is from a 172. With 6x6 wheels on the mains.
As of now it's a package deal and I'd rather not take the good parts off and send the fuselage/wings to the scrapyard because it's pretty well built (although needing inspection, and repairs), and it would give the buyer a chance of restoration.
It's on barnstormers but if someone from the forum could use the parts or wants a project I'll make you a deal.
Just mostly want it gone. It's registered in my name and has a lot of paperwork that's comes with it.
Ill take more pictures this week.
