Executive Flyers Aviation, actually, at Hanscom Field. 781-274-7227. The S2B
is no longer around, although there is an Extra 200 available for dual with
Michael Goulian. Weather and scheduling might be an issue for intensive
programs.

To the original poster- many people, including myself, advocate starting with a
less demanding aircraft such as a Decathlon. Its cheaper, more available, and
you may get a better foundation in basic skills because the less capable
aircraft may require you to work harder at basic maneuvers. If your goal is
just to bomb around in a Pitts, it might not matter. Just my opinion, and it's
worth what you paid for it.
