Our Super Decathlon is certified as a fully aerobatic airplane, but is easy to fly.
The American Champion Super Decathlon 8KCAB is well known for its versatility as a personal aircraft and a trainer for both tailwheel and aerobatic flying. With docile handling characteristics and terrific cockpit visibility, you’ll enjoy flying it from day one.
Whether you are visiting Left Base for a Tailwheel Endorsement, Spin and Upset Recovery training, Emergency Maneuvers training, or an introduction to Aerobatics, flying the Decathlon will make you a better pilot in every way.
By FAA regulation, emergency parachutes are required for our Spin and Upset Recovery and Aerobatics courses. Either bring your own ore we can supply one for you.
Note: Due to seating and weight/balance conditions for the Decathlon as well as the operating limits for each parachute, pilots who enroll for any of our courses must weigh no more than 220 pounds.
