I bought the Book "The Complete Guide to Aeroncas,Citabrias, & Decathlons".
Great book, couldn't stop reading, Thanks you Robert!
I did find an error that should be mentioned.
On page 50 it says the Decathlon has a weight limit of 1550 Lbs. in Aerobatic category.
The TCDS says the maximum gross weight is 1800 lbs in Normal or Aerobatic category when the CG is +13.5 to + 21.0. When the weight is 1550 lbs or less in either category, the CG is range is +11.5 to +18.5. So the max weight depends on the CG, not the Category.
Thanks again to Robert Szego for all the work to get this important book back in print.
