Built in 2005, registered to Uwe Schlätker in 2010. Due to German regulations regarding experimental aircraft, the owner opted to use the Dutch register. The aircraft was seldomly seen and in hindsight this was a great visitor to the airshow. Sold to another German owner in 2018, who then sold it to Tim Just (ex Unlimited Aerobatic Team). At that point, the aircraft had only 100 hours since its construction. The aircraft became N985TJ and first flew again in the US in April 2018. A month later, the owner flipped it over during landing at Apple Valley. Damage and current status are unknown.

Built by Steve Wolf as a replica of the original Pitts Samson. Wolf started to convert Pitts Specials from 1978, supported by Curtis Pitts. Engine plating, undercarriage, ailerons and wings were part of the modifications which led to increased speed, roll ability and more G-force resistance. WS-002 was the second built aircraft and was modified to incorporate learning points from the first built. Wolf also built a 3/4 scale Samson (Samson Mite-1, N749SM, WM-001). 2 other Samsons were built by others, but both were involved in crashes. It appears that only the Samson Mite-1 still exists.
