About the Pitts S-1C
The Pitts S-1 is the classic single-seat aerobatic biplane — small, light and ferociously agile, the mount that dominated competition aerobatics and still delivers one of the best roll rates and aerobatic experiences for the money. Variants range from the symmetrical-wing S-1S and constant-speed S-1T to the high-performance S-1-11 ("Super Stinker"). Most are amateur-built or factory biplanes flown for sport and competition aerobatics.
Produced 1945–2006.
