• 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 am in the process of rebuilding my S1S, The top wing is in bad shape and it will probably be easier to build a new wing than to try to repair the old one.My problem is that enlarging the plans to make a rib jig does not seem to be accurate,and the plans only give the dimensions for the top camber(Aviat Plans)Is there an electronic copy of the rib profile out there to print to full size?My plan B would be to build a S1SS top wing from Steen,would a S1SS top wing work with stock S1S lower wings?I have already spent $$$$ rebuilding the lower wings and would hate to make them wall hangers.ThanksBen
