• 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 recently have started reading about Eddie Rickenbacker and have become fascinated with WWI biplanes. I would like to build one and fly it but I've never flown a plane. I've only been in one plane in my life, a Cessna I went skydiving from. I've seen kits on the internet. Some say they are ultralight rated. I don't know anything about getting a pilots license or even if I need one for a biplane. I have been looking all over the internet for any info I can get on building and flying a biplane. I am 40 years old and live in central Kentucky.
