    • 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 took a long look at two different models, ran a few numbers for a reality check and have finally settled on a Skybolt. Found a project with a welded up fuselage on wheels, tail feathers, wing hardware and have ordered a wing kit from Steen! I'll be picking up the project next month and should have the rib kit shortly afterward.

Now to start finding some tools and build a taller version of the EAA workbench. I have zero woodworking hand or power tools. Well, a hand drill and a pancake air compressor:D.

Looking forward to making some parts soon!
