A brief history of the Citabria
In the world of aviation, the Citabria stands as a testament to innovation and versatility. Born in 1964, it represents the epitome of a light, single-engine, two-seat aircraft with fixed, conventional gear. Beyond its mere existence as a flying machine, the Citabria was crafted with a multi-dimensional purpose in mind: flight training, utility, and personal exploration. In the air, the Citabria is not your ordinary aircraft. It possesses the remarkable ability to endure aerobatic stresses ranging from +5g to -2g. This isn't just an aircraft; it's a marvel of engineering and a testament to the boundless possibilities that aviation presents. And then there's its name, a curious reflection of its capabilities. "Citabria" reads as "airbatic" in reverse, capturing the essence of this remarkable machine – an aircraft designed to gracefully dance in the skies, defying gravity and, in doing so, challenging our preconceived notions of what's possible.
With 2230 Total Time Since New (TTA&E) and the most recent annual inspection carried out in July 2023, the Citabria 7GCAA is as robust and reliable as they come. It's powered by a Lycoming O-320-A2B engine, boasting 150 horsepower, ensuring that every flight is not just a journey but an experience. Recent additions like the new Garmin GTR-200 comm and Sigtronics intercom provide the pilot with the tools they need to communicate and navigate efficiently. It's equipped with LED lights for navigation and landing, ensuring that the Citabria stands out in the skies.
Inside the cockpit, you'll find an Electronics International Digital Oil Temp/Pressure Gauge and a JP Instruments Engine Monitoring system. These modern additions seamlessly blend with the vintage charm, making it a pilot's dream come true. The Citabria's glass is in excellent condition, offering panoramic views of the world below. And with the slider window on the left, you can feel the wind in your hair as you glide through the skies.
This isn't just an airplane for sale; it's a flying embodiment of history, utility, and timeless adventure. It's the Citabria 7GCAA, and it's waiting for a pilot with a heart full of dreams and the spirit of exploration.
