facthunter Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 SIDS for Cessna's is the big issue at the moment but all aircraft corrode, some less than others , usually due to the care in building, and choice of materials. Some 180/185's were corrosion proofed as for sea plane use and the Piper Commanche series were very well done in this regard. Magnesium alloys can be a problem. and leaving aircraft out in the elements especially near the sea. Nev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

facthunter Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 I can understand that. They didn't inspire me when they were new, but they did a job well enough. What that job didn't include was being a good training aircraft. I keep thinking of the 172. We ended up with little to choose from. the Victa with a bigger engine might have been the best at the time had it been developed here. Not necessarily as big as a CT4 has though.

dsam Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 In case anyone is interested, here is a link to a recent Senate estimates inquiry regarding CASA's SIDS directive on Cessna aircraft. Things are heating up for CASA, it would seem... (I hope this link works): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
