• 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 was wondering what type of spinner most people used on an Acrosport II, with an O-360. I was wanting to get a BN-3 spinner from Aircraft Spruce, but thenI read the article that Neil wrote in the Acrosport newsletters on fitting a spinner, and apparently, I won't be able to use a 12" diameter spinner if I have the little hump for starter clearance, which I do. My airplane already has a nice paintjob, and I have a Prestolite starter, so getting rid of the hump isn't an option that I'd like to explore. I also found the BN-2 spinner, but the quick and dirty paper mockup that I made of it, seemed a little small. I do want a polished spinner, so fiberglass is out too. So...what spinneris the majority of the Acrosport II's out there running?
