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.

Guy near me just finished a restoration of a Polish Wilga. He does not have any flying experience but is an IA and does good work. He wants me to teach him and his 3 sons to fly using the Wilga. I have 1800 hours of tailwheel in lots of conventional gear airplanes but no Wilga time. Does anyone on here have any experience? Where can I go to get checked out in it so I can teach in it? Sounds like a fun project but........?
