• 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 have seen many 3-piece upper wings with the metal fairing covering the intersections. All had sheet metal screws every 6"-8" along both edges of the fairing. Last year at Osh I saw two that did not have any screws along the edges. All I could see was one fasterner in the trailing edge.
How are these made so they stay in place without the usual fasteners ?
Thank you,
