I’m a new Citabria owner. I purchased this 7ECA back in October. Since then I’ve flown it about 35 hours. I look forward to much more flying this spring.

Oshkosh? Not this year. Though I would like to attend a few fly-ins closer to home and will be watching this site for updates and information.
 
Anyone flying out there? I was out yesterday; a short cross country to see my folks. It wasn’t a wonderful flight—wind & clouds, but any flight is better than none... Flying solo is social distancing. I can’t be the only one, so post some stories. I’m interested in hearing about unique destinations in/around Northern CA.

Try Columbia, or downtown Redding. Once in a while, Trinity Center can be interesting. At one time there was a grass field at Schellville with really nice antiques.
 
Thank you Bob. Though it’s been awhile, I’ve been to all but Columbia. By downtown Redding, I assume you mean Benton? That’s where my folks live. I very much enjoy flying to the mountain communities around the area. Quincy is a favorite and the flight from Susanville to Alturas is beautiful, especially low and slow.
 
Looks beautiful and welcome to the site Kevin! Nice to see another lurker emerge and join the conversation. :)
 
Thanks Bartman. I’ve been following, looking for opportunities to jump into a conversation. Being a new Citabria owner, I have a lot to learn. I earned my wings in a T-Craft, which I flew for 3 years. Graduated to a Starduster and flew it for another 3 years. Was out of flying for 14 years and finally found my way back last October. All that to say, I’ve got a lot of catching up to do!
