• 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.

Hi gang,
Picking away at the sqwak list and kept trying to ignore the blue stains on the fuel tank. We had issues with the vent at Reno so I pulled the tank out tonite. Don't see any cracks just some not so pretty welds. It also didn't have any anti chafe tween the fuse and the tank. Has anybody had success slosh sealing an aluminum tank on a biplane? Can you guys help with a better solution to my fuel vent. What is there siphoned in flight and would not stop until I emptied the tank. Kept the fire fighters busy for a while;)
Regards
Mark
