About the Cessna 195

The Cessna 195 Businessliner is a five-seat, radial-engine tailwheel aircraft produced in the late 1940s and 1950s, widely considered one of the most beautiful general aviation aircraft ever built. Powered by a Jacobs R-755 radial engine burning approximately 14 gallons per hour, the 195 features an all-metal construction, spacious cabin, and the distinctive deep rumble of a radial engine. The 195 represents the pinnacle of postwar luxury personal aviation and commands premium prices at vintage aircraft auctions. It appeals to collectors, vintage aircraft enthusiasts, and pilots who appreciate the combination of classic styling, quality construction, and the character of radial-engine flying.

Produced 1947–1954.
