No, no, no: the 190/195. Beautiful airplane, the last of
Cessna's artful flying machines. All the following high-wingers are
crude in comparison.


Absolutely, they are. I've flown the 195, and while it's a nice butch
looking airplane, it's positively crude next to any of the Airmasters, or
the DC6, or the AW..... OK, I'd still get one, though..And if i lived in
the bush I might even have a 170, theough I'd rather have an Aeronca
Sedan,
I think. Any other single? nah..
They did have a moment with the 310, though.
Saddest thing wth the singles is; the efficiency went through the floor as
well.
How is it a 1934 airplane is still more efficient in every way to a 2007
airplane?
And better looking into the bargain..

Then you need a Skyhawk TD - The Turbo Diesel!

I wonder what that thing sells for compared to a comparable Skyhawk SP? I
have a Chevy 2500 Diesel and it was almost $5000 more than the gas engine
and last time I filled up diesel was $3.59 a gallon, gas was $2.49, WTF!!!!!
