• 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.

WIN_20180927_10_15_04_Pro.jpg my tailwheel spring broke-right in the middle-no holes there, luckily when I moved it by hand-not landing....
by builders log its a j3 spring (are they not 3 leaf ? ) and a maule wheel !? any suggestions about action ? I would go to auto leaf spring shop and have them copy what I had …..
a reminder, I land on rough gravel- but apparently it worked so far pretty good, just got old maybe....
