About the Cessna 140
The Cessna 120 and 140 are Cessna's classic post-war two-seat taildraggers — light, all-metal (with fabric-covered wings on early examples) high-wing singles built from 1946 to 1951 that introduced many pilots to Cessna ownership. The 140 was the better-equipped model with flaps and rear side windows; the 120 was the simpler, lower-cost version. Both are sought-after vintage classics with light handling and low operating cost. See the live price range and median above for the Cessna 120 and 140 listings currently on the market.
Produced 1946–1948.
