I was there at Duxford that day!!!! He pulled some incredible moves!!! He flipped it mid-air at insane roll rates and flew right above the ground inverted. He threw it around like paper - you'd think it had thrust vectoring to pull those angles. I loved that day! So many cool aircraft and museum pieces. It was SO HOT, but COMPLETELY worth it!
"This is the World's only Jet Powered Pitts Special I believe." Jet ASSISTED. ;-) Those two jet engines provide 700 pounds of thrust (350 each) while the single Lycoming provide 1000 pounds. Still, very cool.

Tremendously soft landing!

Yeah, it’s the Pitts.
Pretty funny that you have to fishtail it on the ground so you can see whats in front of your plane 😂
Inherent trait of most tail draggers.

Whatever happened to the Screaming Sasquatch?

Eddie Rickenbacker never did that!

sorry, for me it makes no sense, the addition jet power.
Why?
