We are a group of three German aerobatic pilots seeking a Pitts S-1S,
preferably N-registered, with a 200 hp Lycoming.
Most S-1Ss are 180hp. I've been told the 200hp engine
doesn't like being over rev'd, so it needs the CS prop.
(All of the factory S-1Ss are 180hp and fixed pitch prop.)

Any advice would be highly appreciated with regard to:
- Certification
Some are factory (standard CofA), some homebuilt.
- Flying skills/training
Lots of dual in a 2 holer with the right instructor. Mostly
ciruits (pattern work).

Can't help with the rest. I owned a share in one maintained by
the local Pitts guru and he took care of that stuff. I believe
that IAC has lots of Pitts maintenance info.

Great fun, but a one purpose airplane, rick
