    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.

Weighed my airplane today (without fabric and paint on the wings)and was pleased to find that it should come in below my max target weight. which is 1,050#. Mains weighed L 449.5 R449.5 and tail 66. Total of 965.

Unless I put over 90 pounds of paint and fabric on the wings I should be good. All the loading scenarios at this point are without baggage and have it in the back half of the CG envelope with an O320, wood prop and an 11.5" motor mount. A metal prop would allow some baggage.
