• 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.

Hi can anybody explain the reason to cover in plywood the underside of the wingwalk on the left lower wing?

I assume you will step only on the upper surface so I guess it has something to do with structural integrity?
If you do not cover the lower part it would be also easier to rob stich the second rib, providing you pre-drill the upper surface in the same fashion as in the center section.
Thanks, Jose.
