About the American Champion 8-KCAB
The American Champion 8KCAB Decathlon is the aerobatic Citabria-family step for buyers who want a capable two-seat tailwheel trainer and sport-aerobatic aircraft without jumping to an Extra or Pitts. Its value lies in training suitability, aerobatic history, fabric condition, and whether the aircraft's performance matches the pilot's goals. Compared with a 7ECA Citabria, the 8KCAB is the more aerobatic-focused choice; compared with an Extra EA-300L, it is more approachable and less extreme.
Produced 1993.
