Aviation - Curtis Pitts' classic biplane design has grown over the years from a diminutive homebuilt aerobatic airplane with a relatively tiny engine and a single seat, to FAA certified factory-built two-seaters.

Pitts also built several monoplane racing planes in the 1940s--1950s, the most famous of which was the low-winged "Pellet" of 1947 and the mid-winged "Lil' Monster" of 1951.[5] Among other one-off projects, he also built a two-seat sport monoplane called the "Big Hickey". Several of the aircraft that Curtis Pitts built had a picture of a skunk on them and were called "Stinkers". After she bought it, aerobatic performer Betty Skelton called the second aircraft that Curtis built, "Lil' Stinker". The prototype S-2, which ...
