For 30K you should be able to find a top notch aircraft. You underestimate yourself as far as training time. Are you already solo akro qualified (citabria/decathlon)? If not, then no hurry for the Pitts cause you need to learn the fundamentals first. Besides, I shopped for >6 months before finding the right airplane for me (in North Carolina no less!). Herb offers great advice, but I wouldn't buy anything from him without thorough market research first. I'm rebuilding my S1E now in Cupertino, based at RHV. I'm in chapter 38. Let's talk. home 408-257-3676 if you want. -mike davis ______________________________ Reply Separator _________________________________ Subject: Wanted: Pitts S1S project or flying Author: postmaster at harten.cbu.edu at smtp Date: 2/22/96 10:09 AM Subject: Wanted: Pitts S1S project or flying 22-FEB-1996 12:04:45.08 From: MARK SCHRICK /FIELD To: IAC Hi, I'm new to the world of IAC but have the heart and desire to learn acrobatics from qualified instructors and fly safely. I'm looking for a low to mid time Pitts S1S for competition acrobatics. I would like to learn in the aircraft for the next 10 to 15 years to become accustom to the aircraft. I'm currently building a Glasair Super IIs for travel but can fit a Pitts or other small acro plane in the hanger. I'm located in San Jose, Ca and looking at a frame currently from Herb Ross. Mr. Ross at this time is asking higher than I can afford ($25K) uncovered and lower wings not assembled. I buy and sell engines, instruments, and King radio's from downed aircraft so I can find engines if a project is avalible. Please call me at (408) 451-8126 or send pictures and spec's to: 1397 Boysea Drive San Jose, Ca 95118 Thank you for your help finding a safe and strong aircraft!! Regards, Mark Schrick P.S. I have not joined a chapter yet. Will look into Chapter 38 in Hayward, Ca. Cris Flint has helped me in the past. (Nice Guy!)
