Ken misses his Pitts dearly and has been Internet browsing at Pitts for sale as recently as yesterday.
But not for an S1S, and especially not an S1S for $42K -- which is at least $10K high. Typically they are equipped with fixed pitch props and the engines get thrashed at 3200 rpm. And single seat? Nah. Not for me.

Maybe the owner thinks the autograph is worth the extra $10K, but not me. Doesn't make it fly any different.

Or he just recovered it and is trying to make back 99 cents on the dollar instead of 50.
