Serious function creates serious fun.
From spinner to tail, today's Cessnas embody a marriage of authentic, time-honored aviation design and the continuous refinements based on years of customer feedback. It starts with a timeless high-wing design that offers so many practical benefits, including greater stability, superb visibility, sun blocking and inclement weather protection. This high-wing design also results in a simplified preflight inspection and easy access to pilot, passenger and cargo doors. All told, these and other proven design features deliver serious performance, reliability, and peace of mind to every aspect of the flight experience.
High-adventure gear.
A rugged, shock-absorbing main landing gear will help you grease the toughest airstrips. Hydraulically actuated disc brakes and a steerable nose-wheel design make for stable ground handling and maneuverability.
Illuminate your path.
High-intensity discharge (HID) lamps not only provide five times the intensity, they also last a lot longer while operating at far less power draw than traditional landing lights. And conical camber wing tips add beauty to your ride.
Our metal has mettle.
Our durable aluminum construction is easy to maintain and repair, with no current life limits on airframe or airframe components. Additionally, our proven, reliable externally braced dual-spar wings with conical camber wing tips enhance the position light-housing and visual appearance.
