Description

Owner says SELL IT! Turn heads on the ramp and in the air with this classic 1973 Bellanca 7ECA Citabria, tail number N90997—a true icon of stick-and-rudder flying that blends vintage charm with pure, honest performance. Its high-wing design offers exceptional visibility, making every flight scenic and immersive—whether you're cruising low over countryside or carving graceful lines in the sky. The bubble canopy adds a modern touch to a timeless airframe, giving both pilot and passenger an expansive, panoramic view. But this aircraft isn’t just about looks. The Citabria—airbatic spelled backward—is built for fun. Renowned for its nimble handling and responsive controls, it’s a favorite among pilots who appreciate tailwheel flying at its finest. From relaxed weekend hops to light aerobatic adventures, N90997 delivers a flying experience that’s engaging, rewarding, and undeniably memorable. Its rugged landing gear and short-field capability make it equally at home on grass strips or paved runways, opening up a world of destinations beyond the ordinary. This is the kind of airplane that turns every flight into an event. If you're looking for an aircraft that combines heritage, versatility, and pure flying enjoyment, N90997 is ready to take you there—with style.
