Citabria aerobatic harness by
Ed Wild
My 1969 7KCAB is fitted with non-folding seats, and military aerobatic
harness front and rear. Recently I acquired a replacement folding seat
to take the place of the existing fixed, one-piece model in the rear.
I'm aware of AD 81-16-04 dated July 1981, which calls for a
supplemental Acro Harness...

S-1C operator/flight manual by
Al MacDonald
Greetings,
Looking for an operator/flight manual for a Pitts S-1C. I have one that's
good for an S-1S, so other than the fact that the engine is a different size
and the wings are different, it kind of works. Can anyone help me out here?
Thanks,
Allan MacDonald

Manifold pressure gauge problem by
Dave Russell
The manifold pressure gauge in my Super D is a pain. More acurately,
it's the line that connects it to the engine. Ten minutes of
aerobatics, and I can't get any kind of reliable reading; it just
sticks wherever.
It's easy to fix. A shot of air into the line (back toward the
engine, of course)...

Pitts S-1 weight and balance by
wallyairplanefan
I have an older Pitts S-1 project I an trying to finish. It has
Sparcraft 4 aileron wings. The old plans I have do not show the CG
range. Does anyone flying a Pitts like this know what the CG range
should be?
Thanks!

Tailwheel question by
Steve B
I have a Starduster SA100 with a Scotts tailwheel. The tailwheel is
not tight on the springs it is loose and the wheel can be moved a few
inches each direction before the springs make contact.
I would think that there should be no play in the springs... my
thought is that it could cause shimmy and...

Living with Technology by
quilljar
I've discovered a really interesting magazine about
technology generally - it covers all sorts of
different areas. That means that not all of it will be
interesting to everyone, but it's only 29 pounds
a year in the UK, and you can get them to send
you a couple of free sample copies by logging...

Affordable aerobatic 2-seater? Pitts vs Zlin by
YeahBuddy
Hi,
I've been doing some researching for a while, but haven't found any
recent topics. I would like to hear some comments/experiences about
Pitts S-2A and the Zlin 142. Is there any way to find decent specimens
of these for under 65K?
I am under the impression that the Pitts is a much more...

An Article on Unrecoverable Spins by
Dave Swartz
There has been a lot written about spins and spin recovery over the
years. Yet, each year we continue to loose a few pilots to spins.
I'm aware of 2 Pitts S2B's (each with 2 aboard) that spun in this
April and an S2C that spun in last September (again with 2...

Pitts Screw Question by
VTflyer
I was planning on purchasing the Aircraft Spruce S2A hardware kit for an
S1C. I wanted to check and see if the sheet metal on the S2A is held
together with 10-32 screws as it is on my aircraft, a quick yes or no would
be all I need.
Thanks!
