• 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.

So I'm looking at starting my baffling and noticed alot of those other homebuilts are using a plenum over the engine for cooling instead of baffling. My only experience with this is working on mooneys (I hate working on mooneys) with the plenum over the engine. All those tiny screws that you always seem to loose a few of. Is there any benefit to an acro airplane to use a plenum? I want the most efficient cooling, so if a plenum does it I will go that route. I haven't seen them used much on acro airplanes so.......???
