What ever became of mid-twentieth century aerobatic pilot Betty Skelton? I believe her plane was 'Little Stinker' with a skunk on it. My dad always had the hots for her but he wasn't a pilot or a race mech so he never go to meet her.
Since Ive been more involved in the warbird and vintage aviation scene, he keeps bugging me about it. Over and over.....

The Pitts Special "Little Stinker" was restored and placed on display at the Smithsonian NASM until 2003. It is currently on display at the Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center.
