Why didn't the Cessna 337 make it?

It made a poor multi trainer for FBOs because the FAA would not issue
"full" multiengine ratings to students who took their checkrides in it.

A multi-engine rating limited to centerline thrust.

Just what did the FAA issue then?

A 'centerline only' thrust limitation to the ME rating.

Not only that, but if you have a regular multiengine rating, you still
can't fly the thing unless you get a type rating (or somesuch) for it.

Not true I think.
If you had a multi-engine rating, a normal checkout was FAA approved if I
remember correctly. I don't believe the center line thrust rating was
mandatory above the regular multi if already held.

You may be right, but I was told by my ground school instructor back in
bxxt xwff that you needed a "something else" to fly it.

I could be wrong. It would be a historic moment though.

Well....if it helps any, go check my certificates on the data base. I might
very well be the only commercial instructor left alive with a centerline
thrust rating :-)))

Correct, although some other nations rules might be
different. I understand that some countries require a type
rating for each multiengine model.
