• 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 Folks
Working at dialing in the wing rigging on my Eagle.
To add a washer above or below the I strut, obviously you have to slide the bolt partially out and add a washer.
I took some of the washers and cut a slot in them, so I could just loosen up the bolt and slide it in. And then tighten the bolt back up.
There seems to be no way it could slide out, and is secured tight in the stack.
But wanted to hear thoughts or input.
thanks
Mark
