• 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.

uploads/20100108_063614_Pitts_rib.jpgAnother question for the group. My Pitts S1S has wings that were built from a Pete Grove kit. They are ply leading edge, extended 3 hinge symmetrical ailerons with spades, and rounded tips. I'll attach a picture of a rib. They are built from 1/16 mahogany ply capped and trussed with spruce (not sparcraft)


Just wondering if anyone else has these wings and how they perform. They sure do look nice.
