    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.

This is a early 70s S1S originally built from a factory kit serial 292h, although I am not sure of the history of the C wings I intend to use. Thought you guys may enjoy seeing a another project slowly go together. I have experience building sheet metal and composite aircraft but this will be my first Pitts project. I am very thankful for the wisdom and helpfulness of this forum.
So far everything looks structurally sound except for a few broken cap strips and hangar rash.
