• 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.

Today I visited another Pitts being built nearby.. I see he has split his side panels into removable sections that allow for panel remove without removing the wing.


I haven't got far enough on the wings to know whether this is necessary, or whether they can be removed without removing the wings - for inspection behind the throttle etc.

Anyone got any input on this? thanks!
