Tailwheel Tuesday! Citabria Facts & Walk Around

I am a student pilot who has flown many Cessna aircraft with tricycle gear. My instructor says that I can start learning the Citabria that my school has in the summer. Any suggestions?

wow...nice looking Citabria mate. I've just started my tail wheel/aerobatic endorsement in a Citabria after learning to fly in a LSA. Look forward to checking out the rest of your videos.

Very ugly jowls front..much beautiful beak had 7gcbc model of 1970..this new models are front very ugly.

On average how long does it usually take to get the endorsement on a tailwheel plane?  I do not live near you, but might consider getting it one day.  Right now I am looking to get current, BFR; for vfr and Ifr.  The only thing that would keep me from taveling from Birmingham, Al. to your location is justifying the added expense, but I like your organization, and might even consider using you as a buy broker once I get current on finding a suitable mooney or beachcraft.  Thanks...

Thanks for making this video and beautiful airplane! I am seriously considering purchasing a Citabria 7GCAA in the near future. So this walk around was very beneficial. A few questions if you do not mind. Did you replace the wooden spar with a metal one when you restored the aircraft? Also, you mention 160 HP for the engine. From my understanding, the original engines in a '75 would be a 0-320-A2B and were rated at 150 HP. Did you replace the engine with a newer O-320-B2B that is standard in the '97+, 160 HP, version? If so, why?

....and a GA7 Cougar in the background.  Nice!

Think I'll check my log from '77 , might have flown this great plane........... Fun to fly.... looks really nice ! needs some fat tires.

Volume Please!

I like airplanes.

I’m going to passenger in a ‘75 7ECA in two weeks. I’m so excited! I have a stupid question. Your plane looks like a skin-on-frame design, yes? What is the skin made of? Canvas?

Beautiful machine, thanks! Went to our site, well run operation you have there. I’m in Brazil now but raised on a farm southeast of Anita! Nice videos.

I begin flight school this Saturday and did my discovery flight in a Citabria, the young instructor let me fly most of the time and it was a very nice little plane! I guess I will be seeing a lot more of it now that I will be starting flight school:)

Phenomenal!.

I really enjoyed the video, but the audio was awful. A lavalier mic would have helped a lot for the narrator.

Nice 7GCAA. I fly both that and a 7ECA on a regular basis. Very sweet planes.

A mighty fine airplane... I fly it and it is wonderful...mmm.

Beautiful plane!
I bet you get a lot of compliments in person.

A gabbler for a CFI increases a student's workload.

Wish you were in Arizona….nice Bird!👍🏼

The sound is very low...not easy to hear what you are saying..

My favorite taildragger. Unfortunately where I live right now you can’t even find a Cessna 140 or Piper Cub to fly. Nobody rents tail draggers out here.
