  • when will be released for sale?? how much do you know if the actual 172,182,206 will be discontinued??

  • Cessna told us its decision to produce a next generation piston aircraft would come later this year (2007). Cost and performance targets have not yet been announced (June 11, 2007). The final version of the aircraft is expected to father a new line of piston singles. The focus of this project seems to be the creation of a new line of aircraft with different performance characteristics that may not necessarily replace those of the 172, 182, and 206.

  • Wow - a new 177 - Cardinal. Finally! Needs a yoke, turbo Diesel and retracts and a price tag of $99,999 with G1000 IFR! 200kts? 1500ft/min? Useful load of 1000lbs with full fuel? 1500 nautical miles range? No, no, it will have a stinkin stick, have an unefficient Lycoming and cost about half a million US$. Sunvisiors extra! It will go about 155kts and burn 17GAL/h. With full fuel it will be single pilot, maybe one passengers and most of it will be made in China! "General Aviation" my ass.

  • I'd be interested if they weren't moving to China.

  • Uhuh... I'll hold my breath.

  • The wing reminds me of the "STINSON V77 RELIANT"

  • This guy is the VP of Cessna (?!?!?!?!?!?) ... and he can barely communicate. I think I'm going to watch this clip again and turn the on "Uh" meter. If "Uh" was a knot, he would most likely speak faster than any of the planes he is discussing.

    Cessna has no idea how to produce an aircraft that fulfills the needs and price point of 95% of the aviation market.

  • i know nothing of airplaines ..

  • Why did Cessna stop making retractable gear single engine aircraft. I hate that they are all fixed gear.

  • id say yoke or side stick imo

  • keep the yoke! not the joystick!

  • Sky Catcher, the 350 and 400 low wings, now this new Cardinal? Two handfuls of Citations? 172, 182, 206, Caravans etc. Why not reduce the mix and make something great? All nice, but nothing great like the 1976 172M ot the 1976 or 1977 177 Cardinal RGs. Why did they wait 3 years to try Thielert? They could have bought Thielert years back. Now they start over, they waited too long. Some strategy! A high wing line that uses lots of the same parts could be built like cars.
