CESSNA CARAVAN AMPHIBIANS PLANE

Every day, Caravan Amphibians bring civilization to corners of the earth that have never even thought of having a traditional runway. And, every day, hunters, anglers and other outdoorsmen use the Caravan to escape civilization entirely. So, go ahead. Load it up with a generous amount of baggage and passengers. Stuff even more gear into the enormous, sturdy floats. Lift off and fly at speeds up to 165 knots (306 km/h) for a range of up to 820 nautical miles (1,519 km). Your Caravan can take it.

The epitome of versatility.

Whether your mission is freight or airlines, personal/corporate or amphibian, the Caravan is fully equipped to meet all of your needs. It starts with a timeless high-wing design that offers so many practical benefits, including greater stability, superb visibility, sun blocking and inclement weather protection. The high-wing design also results in a simplified preflight inspection and easy access to pilot, passenger and cargo doors. And like our traditional high-wing single engine aircraft, the Caravan is constructed with durable aluminum, making it easy to maintain and repair, with no life limits on airframe. Additionally, our proven, reliable wet-wing tanks between front and rear spar hold 2,224 pounds (1,009 kg) of fuel, increasing range. But our proven combination of function and design doesn’t stop there.

King of land, air and sea.

When your travels turn maritime, the Caravan Amphibian can take you there. So whether it’s touching down wet or dry, durable amphibious floats make your landing as smooth as the flight itself.

All aboard.

The durable right-rear airstair was created to enable passengers to board quickly and efficiently. The door is easily opened or closed from either inside or outside the aircraft.

Powerful propulsion.

The Caravan is equipped with a McCauley 106-inch diameter, metal, three-blade, constant speed, full-feathering, reversible pitch propeller. The propeller has an overspeed protection system that is controlled by a governor, reduction gearbox and is backed-up by an overspeed governor as a redundant safeguard.
