• 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.

Gday,I have a set of plans for the EAA biplane P.I have enlarged them and have been studying them and the fuselage page shows that the longerons are spliced behind station 5,that is the seat position.The question is why can't it be one length of 4130 from nose to tail .mind you these are plans from 1964 maybe it was the lack of longer material who knows but anyway is there any reason why the splice would be there ? Cheers Ross
