• 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'm to the point on the first wing that I needed to layout the new ailerons and start working out the finer points for hardware locations and other details. I pulled out the ribs and spar for the bottom right aileron and got it all clamped up to the wing to see how things work out.

These are the three-hinge ailerons with the airfoils to match up to my Sparcraft wings. There are quite a few parts unfinished and not installed yet in this picture. Nothing is glued, drilled or cut for the ailerons yet. Just trying to see how things work.

There are a few more pictures here.
