I’ve been watching the few Pitts S-2E’s that keep getting listed on BS. The market seems to agree that they are over priced but at least one of the owners seems willing to negotiate. Unfortunately it doesn’t appear to have the symmetrical ailerons of the later models. How big of a difference are we talking? I assume it’s probably just as easy to build a set of aftermarket wings from Raven versus trying to modify the existing wings. I don’t imagine there are a lot of used e/a wings floating around.
How do the frise models compare to something like a Skybolt or acrosport? I’ve seen lots of nice Skybolt for sale recently but due to hangar constraints an S-2E or Acrosport are about the biggest I can comfortably go. I’m not interested in competing, just a fun toy so ultimately it doesn’t matter other than re-sale desirability.
