    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.

Would ya'll use a Lycoming crankshaft that had failed the 505 inspection? There are some for sale out there that say "good for experimental or airboat" etc. I assume the sellers are talking about cranks that have pits but have no cracks? They do not make that clear. Obviously $1200 is easier to budget than $5500 but.....

Would you run one in a sport plane; i.e. no aerobatics?
