@@dmack1827, the recipe is the same: build a box, attach airfoils, control surfaces and avionics as needed. Put some wheels under it. (Don't forget seating for the crew.) Add two PT6As. Voila!
Its a very nice, clean, design and should be a successful aircraft. It also shows you how right the designers at Short Bros and De Havilland Canada got their light transport designs in the 1960's.
I agree completely. Its kind of like we could do some flight testing of our own. And when you consider the number of Cessna/Textron aircraft in the sim already, it almost seems like a logical next step. I realize that Cessna has more important things to focus on, but what if?
It's amazing how many of the design decisions the Short Brothers designers made more than 60 years ago have proven out over time, despite the "shoebox" jokes. Too bad you can't drive a car onto the back of this, but I suspect it handles better in the air!
We used a Summit Air Skyvan in the Arctic for moving freight and personnel. Great aircraft. Two things that stood out on the negative side: Square fuselage in a cross wind was shall we say challenging. And the second, (specific to this particular aircraft,) the Garrett turbines would set up a harmonic that would drive you mad, LOL. Everything else about the plane was stellar.
@@Chris_at_Home I take it you mean the single piston engine version. If you think the Otter is slow the Beaver is far worse. We've had to turn back in a severe headwind because our ground speed was next to negligible. Put a derated turbine in a Beaver and that's a whole different story. Having said that, both these planes were and are great aircraft.
@@lotahitchanova I know. I spent a summer where I chartered a Beaver on floats many times doing communications work. The Twin Otters were used as a daily shuttle between Anchorage and Kenai for many people doing work on the oil platforms down there. Then once there helicopter out do a few hours work and do it in reverse. We also use Beavers on fly out raft trips.
Coming from someone who's jumped a few times I can honestly say that to Textron aviation and all who've hand a hand in design and building this I can only say she is beautiful
The Cessna 208 has been my favorite plane for a long time, it just got bumped to #2. I love this. Congratulations to the entire team that brought this forth.
Looks similar except for the tail. Cessna did great on this one. I'm curious to see if it has the same or better short field performance as the venerable Twin Otter.
Viking in Victoria BC Ca. has upgraded the Twin Otter and is now repopping them and they can't keep up. Cessna is obviously taking advantage of this situation. It's no wonder it looks like the plane they copied. Nice build tho. Viking is also talking Otter....
It looks like a Twin Otter, but isn’t a Twin Otter. Its sole purpose is to haul packages and cargo economically from airports. It is not a STOL airplane, though it could likely be modified for STOL. It will handily beat the Twin Otter in almost every category including speed, range, payload, maintenance costs, dispatch reliability... with the sole exception of STOL which most operators don’t need anyways. Borek doesn’t need STOL running off ice runways they can make as long as they want. Harbour Air doesn’t need STOL taking off and landing on the ocean. Etc etc.
That will last for a few weeks then you will want to fly a bigger, faster plane preferably without propellers. Once you have that job you then want to fly something bigger. Eventually you get to the stage of never wanting to sit in an airplane ever again. Trust me it happens.
Cessna really knocked it out of the park with this aircraft. 19 seats, designed to fit standard cargo containers dual cockpit doors, large cargo door, high wing, t-tail, PT-6's basic easy to repair and maintain airframe. It sort of looks like a twin otter but i consider it a 21st century replacement that designed out all the minuses of the otters.
Well done team Cessna. You have done it again. Your craft make a real difference all over the world, and this project has the potential to be a real game changer to many charities that depend on the Cessna name!
Not a huge Cessna fan but this looks like a winner. A replacement for the twin otter is long overdue and caravan wasn’t ever going to make the cut with only one engine
Mind you, that's not entirely derisive. They say that the only replacement for a DC-3 is another DC-3. I'm sure that, eventually, someone will come up with something that can haul 5 tons a thousand miles at 200 mph and land in 2500 feet fully loaded. Should be a piece of cake, right?
A Much Improved, Updated and Modern Twin Otter for the 21st Century!!!. Excellent Utility Aircraft which can serve as many different platforms for aviation...Well Done Cessna!!
This plane , which really will fill a void in FedEx's air line haul division , is a game changer . Because FedEx worked with them in the design elements , that are not practical in a passenger configuration like the ATR or q400 the sky courier will have orders beyond the initial launch.. post covid and the demand to access more remote locations with larger volumes of cargo and a rugged proven engine makes this plane a win win..
Wipline put em on the caravan, and Cessna didn’t plan on that either. I can promise you some billionaire will have floats on it from Wipline in less than ten years. The Kaplan brothers from Minnesota bought one of the first privately sold caravans and had floats installed. I took care of that plane in the 80s.
Like this plane and I sure it will attract plenty of customers. Many of the 1950's, 60's and 70's aircraft need to be phased out for newer technology and current needs.

I know I’ve posted about this before but she’s a type of aircraft that you can’t stop talking about.
Knock knock who's there DOD, DOD who department of defense and we noticed your Cessna Strategic air transport. And we like it. This is going to be a hit.
This will hold about 3 Caravans freight loads or 19 passengers, the Caravan can only hold 9 passengers or 14 small people in some countries. This is the real twin Caravan, not the 406 Reims made.
Fixed gear, lower speed, thus a trainer, but to get beyond FexEx, making this a float plane (that also has a flat (section add on) bottom snow capability) would be a logical improvement.. for Passenger service, the Dornier 228NG, has got this beat
What a BEAST!!! I want to make an aerial motorhome out of this aircraft! Land it in the middle of nowhere and leave the world behind. Cant wait to see the final specs.
It's a good LOOKING plane, as an Aircraft Mechanic, I love to see this beauty to be a part of the Philippine Navy as a LOW cost Long Range Maritime Patrol Aircraft, a good replacement for the PN's BN Islander, just put some ISR console from Elbit Israel, then you are GOOD to go...

The point is really the 19 passenger capacity. According to ICAO rules you can fly without cabin attendant. This means you are within reach of a major hub of an airline - without the hazzle of fighting through traffic.
The low speed does not matter much as you will be faster (a lot) than road and train. Train generally transport you from where you don't live to where you don't want to go. It's ceiling of 25.000' means you don't have to pressurize the fuselage and that makes the plane lighter.
I think that this is the best looking aircraft.
This as a private plane would be awesome 😍
NICE ! Beautiful take off !
Will this be the long needed replacement for the DC3 workhorse?
Best of success to you. It looks like a great concept. Very simplified to manufacture, better for loading and unloading, and more fuel efficient compared to the Twin Otter. The Twin Otter is my favorite airplane to fly. Those STOL capabilities do come at a cost. The double slotted flaps and flaperons of the Twin Otter are complex mechanisms. What’s next, a stretched version to the size of a Shots 330 or 360? That used to require certification as a Part 25 aircraft. I love simplicity of your Citation Aircraft. I have flown many types of corporate jets in my career.
It looks very similar to the TWIN OTTER, but there are differences. Larger. Higher tail stabilizer, but basic structure is familiar. I like it. Twin Turbo props and pressurized and it would make a great short hop transpo or even a personal aircraft with room
Looking forward to seeing this on floats!
Nice job and looks amazing. Can it land at Tenzin-Hillary Airport in Lukla, Nepal?
Awesome aircraft ,,, loved all cessna planes

Cessna has always built a good product.
A very useful looking aircraft.
Good to see a clean sheet design take off. She's a good looking aircraft. What was the decision behind the T tail compared to a conventional design /layout?
This was designed with FedEx as the launching customer, high tail is to keep it away from truck damage.
Step One: Looked at a set of plans for a Twin Otter.
I would list the other steps, but we all know step one was where the heavy lifting was done...
Reminds me of the old Dornier 228 beautiful plane
Cessna SkyCourier in sky is great😉
How many Senior Test Pilots can this thing carry?
To Answer The Headline?
You took the Beech 1900, put the wings on top of the fuselage, fixed the gear and put a different name on it. Easy.
What's the reason for the exhaust stacks to be different each side of the cowling? Strange, but also kinda cool.
Keeping the exhaust soot off the wings, just like the 1900D stacks do
Great job Amigo
It literally has cockpit doors. That's coolest part.

That plane has every thing to be a airliner just like the saab 340 i think silver airways would enjoy this plane alot!
It's not pressurized, so not really going to sell anywhere but remote air links for passengers
Hi Cessna, why did you not build a rear ramp military version of the 408 for airdrop and paratrooper deployment?
You could rival the C-212 Aviocar?
When is the gunship version going to be available?
