• 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.

My second hand S1-C has a pitot system leak. It is somewhere between the head of the pitot/static tube, and the end of the pitot line at the wing root.
Before I start cutting into my aluminum leading edge, thought I'd ask for ideas about creating access to the pitot static tube and mounting block on the forward spar of the left wing.
I'm thinking of a small access panel, similar to the one for accessing the forward landing wire. Any Ideas?

Thanks, Steve
