New Cessna 4 Seater & LSA

Guys, saw these at Oshkosh and noticed someone has put them on a local site for us... Nice looking machine(s). A little bit of Cirrus in there mixed with Glastar. I note the LSA version had an empty interior and the 4 seater looks to be configured for Flight Testing with that re-fuelling looking probe on the leading edge. The 4-Seater didn't land, perhaps too top secret!

I liked the look of the retractable better.



....from another post -

The machine that was demonstrated at Oshkosh will probably be a 4/5 seater. It will be the first of Cessna's new piston singles on the market and will be aimed intially at stemming the loss of Cessna 182 sales to the Cirrus.

Guessing since it's got the same rego as the fixed gear version it's a fake pic. Looks very flash!!

Photoshopped them. No gear obviously and changed the shape of that goofy looking rear window. Perhaps one day we might see something like this from Cessna. I'll put my hand up for one if they do.

at a target price of $110,000 they might be here sooner than you think!

I think you'll find that the LSA model is aimed at the $110k'ish mark... the 4 seater will be expensive!
