• 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've based my new Pitts at the Blairstown airport. One thing I may not have considered fully is where I would practice. I've found a nearby spot that meets all the FAA requirements and has one very nice reference line. But it is forested, hilly and very unfriendly should the motor quit. I've heard that pilots have been practicing over the onion fields for many years. I'd like to know if anyone here has used this location and has any information about how acro activity is viewed by the neighbors. I don't need a box yet nor do I plan on flying down to 1500'.
