Description
In the last 95 years, rapid advances in aviation technology have fundamentally changed the way we live, work, and wage war, and the Cessna Aircraft Company has helped forge the way. From the company’s first single-seat monoplane, handmade in 1916, to the new Citation Mustang, Cessna has grown into the world’s largest general aviation manufacturer, delivering 1,239 aircraft in 2006. This fully updated third edition chronicles Cessna’s extraordinary history, with information on Cessna’s newest models and a foreword written by Academy Award–nominated actor and aviation enthusiast Harrison Ford.
