The Citabria 7GCBC is widely regarded as one of the most versatile and enjoyable certified tailwheel aircraft ever built. Combining excellent STOL capability, comfortable cross-country performance and full basic aerobatic certification, it delivers a flying experience that very few aircraft can match.

Unlike more specialised bush or aerobatic aircraft, the 7GCBC successfully combines all disciplines in one exceptionally capable platform. Whether operating from short grass strips, exploring remote airfields, flying cross-country or simply enjoying classic stick-and-rudder flying, the Citabria feels equally at home.

Powered by the proven 150 HP Lycoming O-320-A2D, the aircraft cruises comfortably at approximately 100 KTAS while maintaining excellent short-field performance. With full flaps, stall speed is below 40 knots, making the aircraft exceptionally forgiving and confidence inspiring.
