In the context of my statement (two butts, bags and good short field performance), very similar. I love my Citabria, except for not being able to swing my own wrenches on it and the other restrictions that come with certified aircraft.

I like the tandem configuration just fine. Being a CFI I started putting my passengers up front if they had the aptitude to push the starter button and dial the COM radio (oh, and push "ident" when prompted). If I do my part correctly, my Kitfox will have a higher useful load than my Citabria and have a shorter ground roll for landing and takeoff.

For that reason I'll be selling the Citabria as my build progresses because they serve the same purpose, and I only have one hangar.
