• 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.



Will you write a pirep on your plane?

As part of our 2016 chapter newsletters (IAC Chapter 34) we're hoping to have a series of pireps on lesser-known aerobatic capable and/or sport biplanes. The goal is one per month.

For any of you who have a unique or interesting plane, would you consider volunteering your time to write up something and send over a few pictures? It doesn't have to be long at all, and you don't have to be an aerobatic competition pilot either.

Here are the types I can name off the top of my head. Others welcome of course! It would be quite interesting to get a competition perspective on the Stearman.


- AcroSport
- Starduster / Acroduster
- Marquart MA-5 Charger
- Marquart MA-4
- Bücker Jungmann
- Knight Twister
- Mong Sport
- Tiger Moth
- Great Lakes
- Little Toot
- Smith Mini


More than one writeup on each type is cool particularly if they're different models (someone on here has a Ranger-powered SD I think?).

You can contact me via message here on the site or email from our contact page (chapter president).

Happy new year to everyone...
