Operating costs of an S1 Pitts high?
Small footprint = reduced hangar rates. Single seat = small insurance premium. You can pull the noise lever back and still zoom around. Fixed pitch prop - no Notice 75
IO320-360 = 8gph at cruise
l think you are talking bollocks, old chum!! I've flown 2 in the past few weeks - one was a fire breathing dragon, an awesome bit of kit!!
Your £100/hr Chippie was in here a few weeks back - she is sweet!
Anyway.......
HAPPY BIRTHDAY Rod1
