Cox Pitts Special 50th Anniversary Edition control line aircraft.

Cox Pitts

I have had this aircraft on a shelf for years. I have never opened it up or taken it out of the box. Think it may be time to start cleaning up and sell off some of my aircraft models.

I remember a red Cox Pitts model that didn’t fair as well when we were actually flying control line as kids. Actually most of my control line aircraft ended up badly. I was never that good at control line flying.

Now remote control… I was better at that.

Wow, while I was cleaning my shop I found two sets of Pitts S1 Plans.

And I am thinking that these plans would make someone a great Christmas gift.

Email me an offer but you pay shipping.  If we hurry you can get them before Christmas!

I can even include an Pitts S1E builders manual.
