Default What kind of Cessna

She said the company gave the Beechcraft to the government for the war
effort, and replaced it with a Cessna. What kind of business aircraft
was Cessna making in the 30's and 40's?


DC-6, C-34 thru C-38, C-145, C-165, T-50.


You forgot the AW, DC-6A, DC6-B (DC-6 was not made in the '30s) C3, 120,
140, 170, 190, 195, C106 and P10.


No I didn't. The AW was built through 1929 and the DC6A and DC-6B were
DC-6s like the F-16A and F-16B are F-16s. The 120, 140, 170, 190 and 195
were all postwar so not affected by the war effort. The C-3 was an
extensive modification of an AA that had been built in 1928. The C-106 and
P-10 were experimental aircraft.
