• 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 received my Skyote plans yesterday from ACS. They are VERY well drawn and contain, I believe, everything necessary to build the airplane on the large E-sized sheets. Linear dimensions are shown in inches and decimals thereof to three places, angular measure is shown in degrees and decimals as well. Using a triangular engineer's scale, I have found the drawings to scale very accurately and am well pleased with that.

Each sheet has a table listing materials (wood, tube, etc.) including the material spec's & quantity, hardware spec's & quantity, and purchased items (brake parts for example) manufacturer's parts numbers, etc. for all the parts and components shown on that particular sheet. This will be a great help for listing these items for ordering.

Included with the drawings are two sheets which give complete spec's for ordering flying wires, round wires, and end fittings.
