• 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.

My dad and I have been busy working on the top wing for the Pitts rebuild. The spar extensions for squaring up the wing tips have been finished and today we got the new ribs routed out. Dad also ripped corner block stock that we'll need soon. We'll get into the ailerons next and then get all the ply sheeting installed including the new leading edges.

I slid the new ribs onto the spars before we left tonight and took a couple pictures, since it looks like progress for a change.
