• 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.

While getting flying instructions in my recently completed Skybolt (AWC 2/2016) project my instructor ground-looped and damaged the lower right wing; broken spars. It was a project that actually started in the '70's so the wing is of the original Hale design.
My dilemma is do I sell it as is or find someone to construct a new wing? I no longer have the time to get back into building a wing from scratch. Anyone know of someone who would construct a wing at a reasonable cost?
