    Why become a Subscribing Member?

    • 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.
    • 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 just realized I joined this little community a little over 10 years ago. My 5 year plan has evolved into, "I hope I finish before I'm dead." I finished 90% of the ribs in short order, then life happened. A typical story I know. I subsequently bought a mostly repaired wreck, but as John has pointed out, this path has it's own issues. The pace is picking up, and the good news is, when I am done, I will have my airplane, in my hanger, on my airstrip, beside my house. All of which was built mostly by me.

More good news is, thanks to you guys, I am much smarter about how to, how not to, and always ask the stupid question, because there really aren't any.

Current plan is, ten years from now I will be finishing my second project, Sopwith Pup anyone?

If you don't have a plan you get nothing!
