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.

Almost at first run of my Pitts 200 HP and the Tech Pub at Lycoming says that I must replace the crank that has lighting holes with a heavy solid flanged crank.
ARE YOU KIDDING ME1111 $8332.52 from Textron, $6000 from Superior, so anybody out know where an aerobatic crankshaft for a AEIO-360-A1E is?
