• 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 am getting ready to trammel the wings and was planning on using the fuselage to set the spar alignment to trammel. However, it is taking longer than I had planned on to get the welding done on the fuselage so I don't have it back yet and I am to the point of trammeling the lower wings.

So, the question I have is:
Are the bolt holes in the spars (to mount to the fuselage) supposed to be in the same plane chord-wise when mounted on the aircraft, or is there a lateral offset of the mounting tabs for the front and rear spars?

Thanks, I hate to waste available working time when i have it....
