Biplane,¾ airplane with two wings, one above the other. In the 1890s this configuration was adopted for some successful piloted gliders. The Wright brothersê biplanes (1903_09) opened the era of powered flight. Biplanes predominated in military and commercial aviation from World War I through the early 1930s, but the biplaneês greater maneuverability could not offset the speed advantage of the lighter monoplane. After World War II, biplanes were used only for special purposes: crop dusting and sport¾ flying.
