• 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.



Trying to decide if I need to build a Parakeet

I acquired a set of Parakeet plans and some bits at the OSH in the FlyMarket last year. Got the N3N finished, wrapping up the Champ and a couple glider projects I've had sitting around for awhile, finished a couple of motorcycles and the Midget Mustang is not far off, so I'm considering my next project. Also have this injected C-85 taking up space in the shop.

Loved the looks of it, seems easy enough to build, folks say it flies as nice as it looks. There doesn't seem to be a lot of Parakeet activity on this site and the Parakeet page doesn't look like it's been very active for a long while.

Anyone have any constructive input? Thought about a Skyote but that looks much more involved to build.
