The Pitts Special (company designations S1 and S2) is a series of light aerobatic biplanes designed by Curtis Pitts. Betty Skelton bought this airplane in 1948, and with it she won the 1949 and ‘50 International Feminine Aerobatic Championships. Her impressive flying skill and public relations ability heightened awareness of both aerobatics and the Pitts design. Skelton sold Little Stinker in 1951, but she and her husband later reacquired it and donated it to the Smithsonian. A volunteer crew restored it from 1996 to 2001.
