The Cessna Model A was a 1920s American high-wing four-seat tourer built by the Cessna Aircraft Company, the first in a long line of high-wing single-engined monoplanes.

Design and development

The first Cessna design built in any numbers was the Cessna Model A, a four-seater with a mixed wood and steel-tube construction with fabric covering. The aircraft was built in a number of variants fitted with different engines.[1]

The prototype (Model AC) first flew in 1927 and the first production aircraft appeared in the following year.[1]

Variants

Model AA

Fitted with a 120 hp (89 kW) Anzani 10 engine, 14 built.

Model AC

Fitted with a 130 hp (97 kW) Comet engine, one built.

Model AF

Fitted with a 150 hp (112 kW) Floco/Axelson engine, three built.

Model AS

Fitted with a 125 hp (93 kW) Siemens-Halske engine, four built.

Model AW

Fitted with a 125 hp (93 kW) Warner Scarab engine, 48 built. One was purchased by Eddie August Schneider in which he set three transcontinental airspeed records for pilots under the age of twenty-one in 1930.[2]

Model BW

A three-seat version with a 220 hp (164 kW) Wright J-5 engine, 13 built.
