• 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.

Gents,

I am trying to decide between a lay-up compound curve type wing root fairing or flat aluminum type fairing. The former I know will take some time, but the return in looks alone seem to suggest it would be worth it. I was thinking a fiberglass lay up.
The aluminum seems like it would be quick and easy.
Anyone have any thoughts on the cost/ benefits of each or methods/techniques of fabrication?
Thanks
D
