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.

While investigating no inverted oil pressure, I proceeded to remove the sump plug with the intention of replacing the o-ring. The sump plug isn't there. As in gone.

Somebody, please tell me it's OK and the plug is probably just sitting in the bottom of the sump.

I'm assuming I have to drop the sump.
