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.
A soft landing is a happy one.
The main landing gear uses high-strength, tapered steel tubes to provide the necessary shock absorption for a smooth landing, time after time.
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.
No dry land? No problem.
Equip your Cessna with floats, and your three-letter airport code becomes H20.
No matter your maritime destination, the amphibious single engine can take you there. Whether it’s fishing in a frosty mountain river or scuba diving in the Caribbean. Whatever floats your boat.
