I took my Bi Annual this morning in a Citabria GcBc 150 hp with flaps. I was really rusty and had to work hard to pacify the CFI. I hadn't flown one since 2002. Big difference from a BC12D! BUT....lots of fun to fly. Then , an hour later I flew my BC12D for a while. What a difference! A lot easier to fly! Its also a lot of fun to land and have people walk up and say things like " That is one Good looking Taylorcraft! I currently have a 74/ 43 McCauley (new) Much better than wood! Better climb and cruise.
