• 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.

does anyone here have any experience with a 220 continental installationon a starduster? at first thought, it seemed too nose heavy. but after some research thru the type cert data sheets, i see the extra weight isn't as bad as i thought. and that is w/out getting into the prop weight, and the weight /moment involved. other concern was i saw a bare duster fuse hanging in some rafters. thought ....man those longerons don't look very big, can they handle the load potential.
how bout flying qualities? anybody care to comment.
thanks...
