Back in the 'dawn of aviation' everybody used biplanes.
Biplanes are a type of fixed-wing aircraft that feature two sets of wings, one above the other. They were popular during the early 20th century and were used for various purposes including military combat, air races, and passenger transportation. Biplanes are known for their maneuverability and agility, thanks to the lower wing creating greater lift. However, they generally have a lower top speed compared to monoplanes.
All biplanes have different wheelspans .
Only in museums.
Yes, there are biplanes in almost every airshow. I go to many and always see biplanes on show and some even perform at shows. The Pitts Special is excellent for thrilling low level aerobatics.
New biplanes are made of aluminium, steel, carbon composites and plastics.
The Wright Flyer was a biplane.
Biplanes have more lift at lower speeds.

I believe the Wright brothers original was a biplane. Correct. But there were many inventors who built biplanes. Biplanes were the most common type used in World War 1. They were continued to be built as late as mid 1930s as they made excellent trainers.
