Take a look here

Aircraft+Equipment-for-sale (http://www.aerobatics.org.uk/aircraft+eqpt-for-sale.htm)

There are one design and Pitts shares going at WW.

You could also email the BAeA and ask them to put a wanted ad on the website.

Good luck

One of our group members is selling their share in our Slingsby Firefly. It's based at Redhill, and advertised on the 'other channel'.

Pete can you furnish more info on the S1s appearing at WW. Cost monthly, hourly, airways fit etc....

Katana, I know the mighty pitts is not to everyones taste but have you tried one. Bit of a different story to a Yak (which in my humble opinion is aptly named) but then again I havent tried one so who am I to talk.

Try before you buy. IIRC its very heavy on fuel as a tourer and very heavy on the controls for aerobatics. So doesn't do either job well. I also thought I heard something about the life of the spars and repeated inspections being needed, but I could be wrong.

The Pitts is an out and out aerobatic machine, although some people have been known to tour in them. They are great value for your money if you want to do aeros.
