• 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.

We did a rough mockup of the turtledeck bulkheads and ran into a few problems. With the front bulkhead if I try to look up my head hits right away, so it will need to be reclined for a little more room. Problem is the measurements will now be different and I'm not sure how to go about finding the new ones.

Second problem, when cutting out the mockup bulkheads we couldn't get shape exactly right. Any tips on how to get the correct radius and keep it even on both sides?
