interplane

Between aircraft wings

Interplane describes what occurs between the wings of a biplane or other multi-wing aircraft: interplane struts, interplane bracing.

The term belongs to early aviation, when biplanes dominated.

More broadly, interplane can mean between any planes or surfaces, though this use is rare.
