The team fly two Pitts Special S-1D Biplanes, Trig Aerobatic Team
the Pitts Special is one of the most legendary light aerobatic aircraft ever built. Although originally designed by Curtiss Pitts back in 1944 the design proved so successful that the Pitts has been used by some of the most famous display teams ever since, this included the Rothmans and Marlboro aerobatic teams in the 1970s.
The team’s aircraft are powered by Avco Lycoming IO-360 engines generating 180HP, powering a fixed pitch metal propeller. This gives them a top speed of 200mph, and with a max weight of only 522 kilograms. T
