RE: Sig vs. Midwest Citabria
I had a Sig Citabria back in the 70s. It was built heavy with tons of carpenter glue (before CA) and several heavy coats of Hobby Poxy paint (before I knew how to paint). It was underpowered with a Fox .45 but man did that plane fly great! Steady as rock at all times...landed like a feather. Even with only a 71 inch wing it's an impressive airplane on the flight line. You will love it.
