• 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.

I see a lot of discussion of flying wires on another thread and I did not want to interrupt that or piggyback on to it.

But flying and landing wire install and tightening will be very interesting to me in the future.
Not only the wire side of it but also the whole important concept of rigging the Skybolt wings.

Are there any publications or video's by some famous people available that shows the A to Z of this process?
Any and all information will be appreciated.

I hope it is not a "black art" situation that has been sent down from father to son kind of thing.

Pointing me in the right direction will make me feel happier about the building future. Then maybe I can get these wings finished and not worry about it.

Cheers. Eric
