Pitts Airplanes * Building the Pitts Wings |
The Pitts aerobatic biplane comes in different versions including the S-1C, S-2B, S-1S and now the Super Stinker. The original Pitts was designed by Curtis Pitts who considered his first airplane design, with a sixty five horsepower engine, to be severely over powered. The Pitts is now one of the most successful aerobatic aircraft in the world with engines up to and exceeding 450 hp. This series of pictures shows how the aircrafts wings are constructed with close up pictures of the spars, ribs, compression ribs and various other rigging of the Pitts wing.
