    • 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.

All hello!
My name is Vadim I from Russia.
I very much like flight biplanes and now I look narrowly at these planes. We in Russia have no such planes and wanted to address to knowing people for council, before purchase of drawings and the construction beginning. Here candidates for construction:
1.Acrosport 2 with the Lycoming engine about-360
2.Skybolt D with the Continental O-470 engine (now I maintain the Continental O-470-B motor)
3.Skybolt R with the M-14P engine (such at us suffices, the truth in a normal state it is necessary to look for)
4.Pitts 12 with the M-14P engine
All planes are considered with the closed cabin.
Application will be for flights on a route on distances from the 200-500km, and performance not strongly difficult pilotage.
Tell please, what features these planes will have with such motors?
Strongly these designs differ on complexity of manufacturing?
What of these planes will approach under my tasks more?
As at us in the winter flights are carried out from skis what of these planes can be maintained in the winter with skis without pilotage performance?
Yours faithfully, Vadim.
