WHEN A CESSNA 337 IS ALL YOU NEED
I have owned over 30 airplanes and six of them were Cessna 337 Skymasters, so I thought I’d contribute a field report as a follow-up to the coverage in the January 2019 Aviation Consumer Used Aircraft Guide.
The six Skymasters I have owned include two 1968 models, a 1975 and 1973 model and currently a 1971 337F model. All were great-running normally-aspirated models, with the exception of the 1969 model, which was a hanger queen. I am a 6-foot-6-inch former NBA player and let me tell you, Cessna is to be commended for thinking of the tall pilots when they designed this tough airplane. I think it’s a dream to fly for the owner-pilot who doesn’t fly every day for a living.
