Comment down below what series of airplanes you'd like me to cover next!

[@Walkercolt1]

Nearly 60 years ago I took flying lesson from "J. G." who owned a Cessna 195 with the BIG 375(?) or 425 HP 9 jug P&W radial. All metal, lovely braced high-wing, BIG (5 passengers or 6 skydivers). I was training in an ErCoupe (1946 or 47-75 HP and two-speed prop). I tried the big 185 ONCE. Move the throttle and pitch forward and you were AIRBORNE and climbing like a rocket! The heavy 185 was beyond my landing skills!!! I couldn't "flare-out" like the tiny ErCoupe. Couldn't ignore the torque and P-factor of that big radial. Full instrumentation and 80-90% aerobatic. A "REAL" airplane! She'd climb to 10,000 ft. with five skydivers for delayed (90-120 seconds) opening jumps, in under 15 minutes-I think I remember J.G. used 60% throttle-about 160 knots.

[@shufosho]

That’s awesome thanks for sharing, hopefully I get a chance to fly the 190/195 someday :)

[@goldenstateaviation2861]

I saw a 195 at a local airfield four years ago. After doing lots of research it’s my dream plane.

[@aircraftadventures-vids]

From someone learning the youtube ropes myself, big congrats on this video, and I could easily see there turning into a series (all Beech planes, all piper aircraft, etc etc). You got something going here.

[@chesterfield5704]

I hope so!

[@jjthejetplane11]

'The 172's outline remains largely the same' except for the fact that modern models of 172 look COMPLETELY DIFFERENT from the first production 172s

[@Steeyuv]

You can find 150s with after-market tailwheel conversions as well. They’re small and slow, but even as a helicopter pilot, I found them to be absolutely huge fun for doing farm-strip flying.

[@wiliam7570]

I have been flying my Cessna 170B for the past nine-years and enjoying every minute of it. It burns about 7.1 GPH leaned at cruise. If money was not the issue, then would be picking up a Cessna 185.

[@shufosho]

That’s amazing, I love Cessnas line of taildraggers but haven’t had the chance to fly in one. I’ve only flown citabrias and decathlons so far.

[@jimml1938]

Clyde Cessna crashed at least 13 times mostly in planes he built and repaired while trying to teach himself to fly. He was an early proponent of a mono-wing cantilevered wing while others stuck with biplanes, The Cessna company (after Clyde had retired) eventually used strutted wings on models to lower manufacturing costs. All their high wing cantilevered designs all look great, IMHO.

[@MikeDCWeld]

Most pilots only get to crash once.

[@ericbuist8218]

I really liked this video. My uncle has a 172 and to people that don't know anything about them I've often described it as being "like the Toyota Camry of airplanes" so that's funny you made the same comparison.

[@dorothywang3711]

Fantastic overview! Really appreciate the clear and detailed breakdown of each Cessna model. It’s great to see both the historical context and the evolution of the designs. Thanks for making it so accessible and engaging for both aviation enthusiasts and newcomers alike!

[@shufosho]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@finnboru7977]

152s are also certified for limited aerobatics compared to the 150, most prominently intentional spins

[@PJHEATERMAN]

The model is the Aerobat. I had one converted to a tail dragger and 180 hp with long range tanks.

[@atlascheethac7869]

Dont forget about the South African modified 402s called the Cessna falcon, where they removed the two reciprocating engines for a turbine. ZU-PKC is one of them.

[@shufosho]

Wow! I actually didn't know about that, thanks for sharing!

[@ihategrigris]

This was great! Thanks. I hope you make more videos in this style.

[@johnnywang9765]

Wow I didn't know there are so many planes! This is very informative; thank you for putting this together. Much needed by the community!

[@kazflight]

What a fun video! Great job!

[@andreasw9907]

Well explained lots of cool Insight :)

[@n539rv]

Starting with the 172… seriously? What about the 120, 140, 170… the real meat and potatoes behind the 172 & 182.

[@Equinox048]

You tell him

[@MarEpor]

though informative, this video should have gone in historical order 😬

[@massmike11]

152

[@mattedwards7788]

Make your own vid then

[@deancook6832]

There was also a 195hp version of the 172 that was called the Hawk XP.

[@gordongunn9045]

Awesome!! Thank you.

[@connormclernon26]

I’ve flown… 150, 152, 162, 172, 182, 182RG so far in my time as a pilot

[@asher9827]

This was very well made, I like the idea of having a short synopsis of the variants from the manufacturer, maybe next you should do beechcraft and piper because those 2 are what alot of us pilots came up training on 👍

[@Littleislandvibe]

Very informative!

[@MRYOUNG123451]

The 170A model the first production run had fabric wings the B model went into production with all metal wings

[@LeonFelixRusso]

Excellent!

[@FLARE787-10]

Great video

[@wackaircaftmechanic2312]

It’s a beautiful machine too! One cool thing about the 177 is it’s easier for paraplegics to get into aviation because of the wider doors and rudder modifications.

[@brianb.2398]

I own a 1984 182R, I love it!

[@VOLK________]

This is great

[@MikePlaysYeet]

Would love if you made an episode about the different 172 models, like the c172r, c172s, c172 j-ta etc

[@semaex]

Good explanation, but the order of presentation is weird.... either make it chronologically or by size. This was all really mixed up.

[@kamekaze997]

🔥🔥🔥 second to what @aircraftadventures-vids said, a series like this would kick ass 🔥🔥🔥

[@flightfusion777]

This video was amazing but those car references tho

[@naaron8_2614_roblox]

U forgot the Cessna 208 Edit: Nevermind, I saw it

[@DaytonaRoadster]

4:47 ooohhhh i do like that. Didnt know they had anything still flying with radial engines besides warbirds

[@KitYeeScott]

The C-185 was introduced with a IO-470 producing 260HP, the 300Hp Camera later.

[@jasonjjyt]

I believe you did not mention the C182RG which features Retractable landing gear!

[@jr56440]

Back in the mid 20th century corporations had divisions that operated almost independently. Cessna was no different and they had the Pawnee Division designing and producing the single engine airplanes, while other divisions of Cessna handled the twins, business jets, avionics, hydraulics and so on. Aside from the 336 and 337, which were from the Pawnee Division, there is practically no crossover between the single engine Cessnas and the higher end offerings.

[@michaelhoffmann2891]

Over 40,000+ C172 built - and sometimes I think think we had all of them at my flight school and I flew them all. 😆

[@user-lf1su7ql6i]

All I want for christmas

[@ImpendingJoker]

You missed one. The Cessna 172RG Cutlass.

[@shufosho]

I lumped all the 172s together, otherwise the video would be 50 minutes long lol

[@RCB757]

And the R-172K Hawk XP. 195 HP and a Constant Speed Prop from the factory. (C-182 Lite)

[@bladi-senpai9398]

very very nice made video, but i got really lost going back and forth on the timeline

[@jkorshak]

Nice overview. Shots of the "marketing department" having a meeting and sound effects every time there's a graphical change are tedious and distracting. Otherwise, decent presentation. Thanks.

[@shufosho]

Thanks! And I genuinely appreciate the feedback as that’s what allows me to get better.

[@christianjensen5523]

Agreed.

[@mikeveis3025]

You left out the Cessna Hawk XP and the Cessna Cutlass, the Cessna Cutlass RG, and the Cessna Skylane RG.

[@Conn653]

You did give wrong information about the 210. The 1960 model(first year) was a fast-back(no rear window), swept tail, retractable gear and wing struts. The 1967 model first introduced the Cantilever wing(no wing struts). They came out 1 year before I soloed in a 150.

[@Eatenbyapuma]

You get that 152 rental price from Rocky Mountain Flight School? I made that website!

[@shufosho]

Yeah, woah that’s amazing!

[@roypiltdown5083]

disappointed that you left out the T-37 Tweet (or maybe not, as it had two engines?) Still, a snappy little airplane. Nice vid.

[@shufosho]

Thanks! It is a twin engine so not in scope for this video, but I am planning to do a video of all twin piston / jet Cessnas

[@roypiltdown5083]

@@shufosho coolness - thanks 謝謝

[@PepperoniGaming]

4:07 call the ball

[@pilot_in_commend]

Brilliant! The whole information about Cessnas is in the same video. This is a good start for those who want to start designating one Cessna from another. Could I please get your permission to translate it into Russian for my audience to spread the word? Of course, I'll add a link to your original video at the very first line of the description and won't monetize my interpretation. I won't do so without your prompt permission. Thanks!

[@shufosho]

Sure!

[@pilot_in_commend]

@@shufosho thnx

[@pilot_in_commend]

@@shufosho Done! Thank you again! Speaking, do you fly from KPAO?

[@shufosho]

@pilot_in_commend yeah I do

[@pilot_in_commend]

@@shufosho We have to meet one day - my base is KRHV =)

[@bbap9079]

what about cessna 206?

[@dustinengel4852]

I thought the controls were stuck the first time I flew a 182 too 😂

[@shufosho]

Hahaha glad it wasn’t just me

[@andyerwin3535]

Thank you. I sure wish cessna would get back into to the affordable trainer market. The new 172 is so out of reach for the average joe

[@nunyabidness3075]

There’s really nothing new about it. Even the glass cockpit, which is the doing of an unrelated company, is now 20 years old? The airframe and engine are hardly changed since the 70’s when they decided not to stop making it. Since 1980, Cessna has simply milked the existing market while suppressing competition using their market position.

[@wolfgagger]

only the 170 was fabric wings, 170A and 170B had metal wings...

[@apennameandthata2017]

Cessna ER and CP series. And NGP

[@wdtaut5650]

CG-1, CR-1, CR-2, CR-3

[@brokenarrows6092]

When you said planes costing $20,000 was that accounting for inflation? otherwise it’s probably about the same price.

[@danrhinehart1134]

Now for a fun question to ask the people at Cessna. Why does the 145hp 1934 Cessna Airmaster out preform the new 2024 Cessna 172? It's faster, and carries a little bit better load all on 15 less horse power......

[@frenchlouegie2552]

0:21 butter

[@PJHEATERMAN]

Flown a lot of them. Most complex Cessna single i flew was the P-210. He states the 210 was strutless thats false. First models in the early 60's had struts. I believe 67 was the full cantilever wing ,no struts.

[@shufosho]

yeah you're correct! but to go through every iteration of every model of Cessnas this video would be 2 hours long so I pointed out distinguishing features of best known models

[@PJHEATERMAN]

@@shufosho Good production, I understand your point. Thank you for the good information.

[@Demonator131]

Grest vid but need new mic bro

[@youtubeguymike8639]

Not gonna mention the time Cesna mafe the most successful ground attack aircraft of yhe Vietnam war, the Cesna A-37 Super Tweet?

[@apennameandthata2017]

182RG

[@GLuft3]

Do Piper!!

[@shufosho]

On the todo list!

[@Zacolian]

0:59 I’ve flown in that exact plane. I know the guy who owns it

[@shufosho]

wow what small world!

[@alan-sk7ky]

Why not just alternate describing engines as 'Contycoming' and 'Lynental' it's easier to describe such commodity engines thus.

[@DJ99777]

Didn’t realise they had so many failures.

[@chesterfield5704]

80 bucks wet! Currently paying 170 wet for a 172 for 750 nav

[@chesterfield5704]

Great video btw

[@apennameandthata2017]

C160, C142

[@gerarddip]

I did flight training for a brief period of my life years ago. The 150 was my least favorite to be trained in, it smelled SO BAD!!! I think some leaded gas must’ve been spilled in there. Plus god knows how much airsickness getting spewed all over the place. Almost single-handily made me reconsider my life path and quit.

[@therobloxgamer3737IsAsian]

This video is 7 mins and 52 seconds long -7 =52 =152 =cessna 152

[@lexfromthenet3882]

Ummm actually the 152 should be referred to as the Honda civic of the aviation world, being clapped out and cheap and highly produced. 👆🤓

[@BenjiBoo42]

Cheap to rent! Uses Rocky Mountains prices 💀💀 No one beats them.

[@shufosho]

Hahaha, still cheaper across the board than say a 172

[@tycflight]

comparing a 172 to a shitty toyota camry is a shame for all aviators

[@Alexander-li4zz]

This list is incomplete, not chronological and your accent is unbearable to listen to for more than a minute.
