    • We are also a great resource for non biplane users, since many GA aircraft are built the same way (fabric and tube construction).

For all you test pilots out there, whats your opinion on how to determine best angle, rate, and glide speed. My son Dans plane will climb well over 2000 ft per minute at full power,IE: IO-540 G1B5 290 HP at 2575 rpm , Gee I think that solves the best angle problem , right ?. However what I am asking ,are real world conservative numbers , not Rocket science. I mean this in the most respectful way, to all you professionals out there who are reading this post . Thanks Dave
