Pitt wings
Greetings,
I'm looking at purchasing a good used Pitts S-1D with "C" wings. I can't imagine why anyone would make this combination but I'm thinking it will keep me on the learning curve for quite some time anyway. I've read the difference between the "C" and "D" wings are an extra set of ailerons, which increases the roll rate from about 180 to 220 degrees/second, and so theorized that the top wing could one day be modified to accept another set of ailerons. Do any of the Pitts drivers know if this could be easily done? Failing that idea I'm thinking perhaps I could build a set of "S" wings one day if they would fit the "D" fuselage, and if so, would that make the Pitts into an S-1S, or is this simplistic thinking? Fire away. -- Allan MacDonald |
