• 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.

What's the secret to climbing into the rear cockpit of a Starduster Too? What with the height above the ground, the lack of an external step, no hand-holds, and a windshield that curves back over the cockpit -- looks pretty tough.

I'm tall and wanted to try one on before considering making an offer. The front cockpit was easier - but the rear cockpit involved using a 5 gallon pail ... but don't see how to do it otherwise.

Suggestions? Thanks!
