Manufacturer: BELLANCA
The Bellanca 8KCAB Citabria is a single‑engine, two‑seat airplane with fixed conventional gear. Designed by Champion Aircraft and first built in 1964, it was made for training, personal use, and light utility work. The aircraft can handle aerobatic stresses of +5 g to –2 g, a capability reflected in its name, which is “airbatic” spelled backwards.
