• 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.



Wing type Delta or Standard

To the Forum: Thank you for the response on the spar topic. Been scanning the Internet for info on structure/ spar failure of homebuilt aircraft, there are some but not too many. One I read was about a FlyBaby wing failure , probable cause was wood rot due to not having adequate drainage in the wing. The other was a Zenair (actually several ) having wing failures due to flutter.Thanks again
<?:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:eek:ffice:eek:ffice" />Decision making time. Delta VS Standard Skybolt? Putting aside Steen Aero Lab’s information. As far as the wings / wing tank and ease of building I would greatly appreciate input from some actual builders out there of the Delta and Standard Skybolt and their reason of choice. Any anticipation of performance changes in the aircraft. Plans / modifications can be drawn up and given all kinds of praise however the true test is with actual application, building and flying thank you tim
