EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2019: General Aviation - More Cessna Singles

The Aero Experience continues our general aviation aircraft theme with a look at Cessna legacy single-engine aircraft from our signature year-round coverage of EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2019, sponsored by Elite Aviation. These Cessna singles had been in production starting in the late 1940s, and each model offers inprovements in performance and utility. We include the two-seat Cessna 150 and 152 trainers and the progressively larger four-seat types as shown below. Some models of the Cardinal and Centurion offer retractable landing gear.

Here we include selected Cessna singles seen around the grounds from arrival weekend through departures on the following Saturday:

Cessna 150 and 152

EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2018: General Aviation - Venerable Cessna Aircraft

By Fred Harl

The fall season is definitely upon us, with changes in weather prompting a renewed urgency to offer as many outdoor Midwest Aviation experiences as possible before winter comes. The Aero Experience has featured some great aviation community outreach stories this week, most of them featuring the most recognizable general aviation aircraft - the high-wing Cessna models. This would also be a good time to include some views of these aircraft from our coverage of EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2018. Below are some examples of Cessna high-wing aircraft from around the country visiting Oshkosh in July. More Cessna aircraft will be included in future vintage and warbird aircraft posts.
