• 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.



Pitts S1S will be up for sale - shortly

I simply cannot afford the insurance any more (after 70 it goes up). This baby needs to find a young man with quick reflexes to fly her. Fresh Engine (O-360, 180hp), fresh airframe rebuild (6 years ago), Fresh propeller overhaul, new bungees (1380HD), new tires, new wheel pants, brand new avionics package (MGL V-6 and Sandia Transponder), just put in new O-rings in brake master cylinders, full heavy-duty lexan belly panel, new battery, new antennas (com and transponder), ESI tailwheel (double). Comes with parachute and hand-held radio (used as back-up - just switch coax cable - easy done in cockpit while flying). Thinking of installing ABS-B before selling (but that will up the price)... Asking $35,000 without ABS-B. Also - I have to fix SD-8 Alternator before selling. that's about it - I am making up a new spec sheet to email. Located at KHUF (Terre Haute Regional Airport - Indiana). Let me know if you are interested. Currently breaking-in fresh engine.... probably available next month - if I don't change my mind again.
