Default New Cessna

I talked to someone who has seen a drawing of the new Cessna line of
models. It will be high wing and it is planned to have four doors. Up
to six seats should be possible. The cabin width will be 54". The
interior will be more "automotive" style with G1000 avionics. It will
be as fast as the Cirrus airplanes. The engine hasn't been decided,
but apparently Cessna is considering a Diesel engine as an option. A
turbo charged engine will be an option for sure. Plastic or metal
hasn't been decided either; however, Cessna's long term aluminum
supply contract will end in 2007.
