Pitts S-2B

Description

Designed by Curtis Pitts in the 1940s, the “Pitts” is one of the most famous aerobatic airplanes. Several hundred factory-built and home-built aircraft are still in service today. The two-seated S-2 version first flew in 1967. It is fully aerobatic and is used worldwide for aerobatics training. The 260 horsepower engine ensures that there is enough power for all maneuvers.
