• 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.

As they say, Time Flies! It has been 20 years now since we finished the Gee Bee Z and it flew. This was my first aircraft design and my first homebuilt. Jeff Eicher and I built it in under 4 years of spare time. I began the design work while I was still in college. Was a fun project. Here are links to video of Jeff and I giving interviews about the project and one of the first flights.
