I took an aerobatic ride in a Citabria once years ago. It was a
blast. I'll never forget at the top of the loop looking through the
ceiling window at the ground. That is a fun airplane.

It really sucks that they set the LSA gross weight limit so low. One
of the goals of the LSA category was to encourage more people to learn
to fly, and make it less expensive.. By setting the weight limit so
low that there are hardly any older certified airplanes that qualify,
they seriously diminished the effect of the regulation. I wish they
had just limited the category to two-place, non-retractable, fixed-
pitch propeller aircraft. I don't see why they even needed to include
weight in the reg.

Don't know why they made the reg at all myself!

I didn't see much wrong with the old ones.

I think there are some ultralights that ae aerobatic. Duane Cole flew a
Cappela after he retired" and I think the Rans Shekira might be aerobatic.
