• 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.

Have an opportunity to take on a starduster project. I have restored two cubs and built a carbon cub so I think I have an idea of what I’m getting into.

From my understanding it is a factory welded fuselage. My concerns are the Cessna style gear and the bolt on fittings for the cabane V. I didn’t have a chance to measure the engine mount.

Wings are built up but in climate controlled storage. They need leading edges and the quality looks good. Didn’t get a chance to get pictures of them today.

If you guys can point out anything good or bad you see I would appreciate it.

Mike
