• 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 was wondering what, if any, type of screening is used on the inverted/upright fuel tank vents at the openings? Seems like a good place for an insect to nest, but the tubing is small and to put a screen to prevent insects seems fairly difficult (very fine screen). What is everyone else doing? Are you just covering when stored?

Also, I have included a couple current photos of the SD II. Close to the Weight/Balance day!

Thanks, Craig.
