There is nothing like a Pitts Special. It will teach you how to fly an airplane. Spend 300+ hours in a Pitts S1S an you will become a great pilot. No other aircraft will do that for you. I flew all types of ultralights, gyrocopters, experimental taildragger airplanes and then I bought my S1S. It's like I started all over again. One of life's greatest experiences.

I helped dad build his Pitts in the mid 70s. He loved the build, but didn't love the way it flew. He literally only flew it about a dozen times before selling it. He flew to Kerville, TX. to the Southwest Regional EAA Fly-In in 1977, took first place biplane, got an offer there and sold it. He was used to the Howard 500, other large heavy taildraggers, and Cessna singles.

Was it difficult for him to land it compared to his other aircraft ground looping after that many hours of building would not be fun.

It scared him. That is typical for many builders of Pitts Specials. Large taildraggers are easy to fly. There's even a significant difference between an S1 Pitts versus an S2 Pitts. S2's are much easier to fly.
