1920s biplane hang glider. In a biplane aircraft, two wings are placed one above the other. Each provides part of the lift, although they are not able to produce twice as much lift as a single wing of similar size and shape because the upper and the lower are working on nearly the same portion of the atmosphere and thus interfere with each other's behaviour.
The Iwao-go was designed soon after Otogiiro Itoh's Shirato ''Asahi-go'' landplane and shared some of its characteristics. Iwao-go translates to Rock, via the Japanese word Iwa (岩) plus -go (type).
The Gregor GR-1 was intended to be a light, low cost, training aircraft for depression-era customers. Gregor was based at Hangar B at Roosevelt Field in New York. [2] The aircraft was a conventional geared biplane with two open cockpits in tandem with oversize interplane struts.
The fuselage was carried on the innermost pairs of interplane struts, so that there was a gap between the fuselage and the lower wing, and a shallow curved fairing was added to the top and bottom of the fuselage. [2] The tailplane was enlarged and mounted in a mid-fuselage position.

The S.T.3 was a single bay biplane with extreme stagger, braced on each side by a single streamlined, forward-leaning interplane strut with wide extremities connecting to both forward and aft spars. The upper wing was held over the fuselage with a cabane of two transverse inverted V-struts from the spars at the central wing joint to the upper ...
The interplane struts were unusual in that on each side of the aircraft, the upper and lower wings were braced with two pairs of struts that converged from two sets of attachment points on the upper wing to a single set on the lower wing, so that when viewed from fore or aft, the struts formed a V-shape.
