The fuselage is a welded steel-tube frame covered in fabric, with metal or wooden wing spars under fabric-covered wings; the fabric is replaced every few decades. The Ag Cat biplane: steel tube, aluminium wings, fabric. This is how the Schweizer Aircraft Corp G-164 family is built; the FAA does not record construction for each aircraft, and the type certificate data sheet is the authority for this one.
