The Biplane Forum is a large global active community of biplane builders, owners and pilots. From Pitts to Skybolts, to older barnstormers, all types are welcome.

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.

Well folks, after nearly 10 years my Pitts took to the air in the most capable hands that I could think of. A huge thank you to Buck Roetman for his help. The only issues are a little right aileron grab when hands off, oil temp is running a little high at 220° and the brakes are a bit soft. Thanks to everyone on here that offered insight and shared their experience.
