Default RE: Pitts Special kit

Hi,...

Model Airplane News (MAN) published the Pitts Special as a construction article in the April 1974 issue. Plans are still available through Airage publishing (plan # FSP04742).

This Pitts was designed by Jerry Nelson, the same design that Midwest kitted in the late 70's early 80's. Wingspan 48 inches, length 41 inches for a 60 size engine. Very nice airplane, my personal favorite!!

Royal used to kit a couple Pitts models, the single seat S-1 and the S-2B. I've seen the S-2B kits recently advertised under another name, but can't remember what it was. Does anyone know who picked up the Royal line??

Hope that helps, (a bit)!!

Sincerely,
Steve T.
