Cessna's next piston single
Has anyone heard any more details about what Cessna is doing for their
new piston single? Last I heard, they had confirmed that there is a new plane in the works, but there weren't any details on what it is. I'm guessing they will be showing something at Oshkosh this year. My speculation (which is worth about zero) is that they are doing a fixed gear P-210 with the new Lycoming 580 engine in it. That would give them a 210-230kt cruise at 25,000ft, 6 seats, and pressurization to compete with Cirrus and Columbia. Columbia has to be working on pressurization also, given their experience with the Lancair IV-P. Any informed or uninformed thoughts?
