This tailored repaint portrays a Bellanca Citabria 7KCAB registered as N53758. It represents the actual aircraft that Buckley Aviation LLC employs for precision aerobatic instruction at Potomac Airfield (KVKX). This freeware package has been carefully assembled by creator Christopher G. Clawson, and it requires the RealAir Simulations payware pack for the Citabria, Decathlon, and Scout 2007 series. It is fully compatible with Microsoft Flight Simulator X, providing enthusiasts with an authentic general aviation training experience.

Specialized Airframe Characteristics

The Bellanca Citabria (often described as the “airbatic” spelled backwards) is a classic tandem-seat light aircraft recognized for its responsive control system and noteworthy aerobatic rating. Model 7KCAB was engineered to handle a variety of advanced maneuvers, which is ideal for upset prevention, spin training, and even mild air show routines. This repaint showcases Buckley Aviation LLC’s authentic paint design, reflecting its real-life usage for aerobatic courses in Maryland.

Important Compatibility Information

This repaint requires the Citabria, Decathlon, and Scout 2007 payware collection by RealAir Simulations. The original payware model must be separately owned and installed in order for the repaint to function properly. End users can find the payware package through recommended retailers or specialized stores. This repaint does not contain the base model but offers a faithful representation of the Buckley Aviation LLC aircraft livery for immersive aerobatic simulation sessions.
