Bellanca 7gcaa
Manufacturer: BELLANCA
The Bellanca 7GCAA Citabria is a light, single‑engine, two‑seat aircraft with fixed conventional landing gear. Introduced in 1965, it was powered by a 150‑hp Lycoming O‑320‑A2B engine and featured a 33.5‑ft wingspan. Designed for flight training, utility work, and personal use, the 7GCAA could sustain aerobatic stresses of +5g to –2g, a capability reflected in its name, which spells "airbatic" backwards.
