I'm building a two seat biplane of my own design, based on the idea of using a direct drive Chevrolet 350 engine.
Empty weight will be around 1300, gross 2000. Wing area about 200 sq.ft. Conventional construction; steel tube fuselage and tail, wood wings. The whole is somewhat reminiscent of a late 1920's design. It would also be suitable for a M14D radial - if I could afford one.
Fuselage and tail surfaces are done, some of the landing gear and all the wing ribs.uploads/20060914_053735_Front_fuse_top.JPG
