I finally purchased an aircraft - a 1979 Bellanca Citabria. One trusted agent looked at it, one trusted agent flew it back, and I finally flew it on 31 January 20. She flew exactly like I thought she would. The mission of this airplane is to get people upset training, spin training, and tailwheel training. I call her Belle (she was from Memphis). Here she is:
We landed at my friend's place (he has his own field). Beautiful.

Me stepping on my mains with Ryan.. I could have asked for no one else as my wingman. He even had a suggestion for my first flight which worked out perfectly. Ryan is an incredible aviator!
