Cessna Aircraft Company has unveiled to the public the first production Model 162 SkyCatcher complete with a production interior at the Experimental Aircraft Association’s AirVenture 2008.
The unveiling comes exactly one year from the date and at the same venue where Cessna officially launched the light sport aircraft program.
Since the launch, Cessna has taken orders for more than 1,000 SkyCatchers and completed three airframes for the program’s development.
The 162 prototype and the first production aircraft have accumulated more than 90 hours for ASTM (American Society for Testing and Materials) flight testing, which will be completed later this year.
