• 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.

Hey guys,
I just got my S1C and I plan to remove the canopy and fly it open cockpit. Most S1's I see have the canopy on.
Trying to decide if I should remove the canopy and leave the rails or unbolt the whole rail system and take everything off? With the rail gone it is just a sharp piece of aluminum there. I guess I can put a runner edging there.
What do most folks do?
