This looks like a poor mans Pitts, anyone flown one?

She looks like a fun toy to go hang upside down in for an hour. How serious of aerobatics can these things do? (not that im serious level just enough to have fun)

I had a ride in the front seat of one a couple of years ago.  Pretty noisy and windy up there.  Didn't do any aerobatics but great fun nonetheless.  It may have been that particular one, not sure, the civil aircraft register is down at the moment, so I can't check it's ownership history.

It's certainly much bigger than a Pitts, but with the 160 hp it felt like it should be able to do all the basic maneuvers, and indeed was designed for it.

Ah, Yes indeed.  Glen was piloting, giving me the ride.  He's ex military and well involved with the Cadets, so I imagine he's still operating it, despite the change in ownership.
