• 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.

Good morning all. Steady progress on the South African Skybolt!
I would really appreciate some help on possibly doing a removable turtle deck. I would like to make it stringer and fabric covered with inner ply skin and a ply floor.
But how to attach it to the plane so it can be removed for inspection and maintenance of control linkage? I attach typical cross section.
Many thanks, Jan.
