• 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 my S1S supposedly has a ultimate fuel tank (don't really know what it is!). It has a total fuel capacity of about 21-22 gallons. It seems to work fine, but due to it's triangular shape there isn't any room below for radios or smoke.

I'm curious if any one can tell me more about the ultimate tank. Supposedly it has an internal header tank?

I really don't think having the extra 2-3 gallon capacity is worth the space it takes up and think I want to go with a regular pitts tank.
