Safety
12,500,000 flight hours. And counting.
There's a saying in the aviation world: "No one gets fired for buying a Cessna." Cessna Aircraft Company has been around for more than 80 years, and we'd like to think we've picked up a thing or two about safety along the way. Not unlike most of our aircraft, today's Caravan has evolved through years of meticulous quality testing and pilot feedback. Flying today's Caravan translates to a variety of benefits for our customers: more favorable insurance premiums and lower costs of ownership, just to name a couple. But most importantly, our determined efforts to improve safety result in peace of mind and confidence when you take to the skies.
Happily ever after.
Durable landing gear means you can count on smooth landings. The main gear is a massive steel tube linked directly to the fuselage. Its flexible design is perfect for grass, gravel and even unimproved airstrips. The nose gear is engineered to absorb both vertical and lateral force by transmitting it to the fuselage. And large, rough-field tires contribute further to the Caravan’s rugged flexibility.
High-performance. Even when the temperature drops.
A TKS anti-icing system has been engineered on the Caravan for enhanced safety. Fluid is supplied to porous titanium panels on the leading edge of the wings, propeller, windshield and tail to keep critical surfaces clear of ice. With no loss of performance.
Highly skilled at cockpit organization.
The Garmin G1000 glass cockpit integrates all primary flight, engine and sensor data to provide intuitive, at-a-glance situational awareness. So put away those clumsy books and charts. And enjoy all of the ease and benefits of flight the way it was meant to be. In a paperless cockpit.
