Description

The Pitts S1 basic fuselage assembly has all basic structural welding complete. This is the long fuselage version popularly known as the “S1-S” fuselage, which is common to the S1-C, S1-D, S1-SS and S1-S. The following items are finished:

  • Basic fuselage “box” structure;
  • All structural welding finished;
  • Landing gear (bungee style as per plans);
  • Cabane;
  • Vertical stabilizer (fin);
  • Other options available upon request.

This provides a straight, factory fixture-aligned “core” fuselage structure that the builder can confidently use to finish out their project. We will thoroughly discuss with the customer such variables as the type of fuselage protective coatings that are available, what options to add or delete to the fuselage assembly, etc. In addition, due to the potentially significant expense involved with crating and shipping a completed fuselage, we are very flexible on delivery options and work hard to find the most economical and logical delivery arrangements possible.
