EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the iconic Cessna 185 Skywagon, specifically ZK-CAN (msn 18500134), which was a part of Rex Air Charter's fleet around the late 1960s to early 1970s. The Cessna 185 Skywagon, a versatile and popular aircraft, was first introduced in 1960 and quickly gained a reputation for its reliability and performance. ZK-CAN, with its distinctive red and white paint scheme, is seen here taxing on a grass runway, ready for its next adventure. The Skywagon's large cargo door and spacious interior make it an ideal choice for transporting passengers and cargo in various settings, from bush flying to agricultural operations. The Cessna 185 Skywagon was powered by a Continental IO-520-B engine, which produced 285 horsepower, enabling the aircraft to reach cruising speeds of up to 160 mph. Its fixed tricycle landing gear provided excellent ground handling and stability, making it a favorite among pilots and operators. This photograph, from The Peter Butt Aviation Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the timeless beauty and elegance of the Cessna 185 Skywagon as it prepares for takeoff, leaving behind a trail of excitement and wonder in its wake.
