A New Look For The Caravan

New Luxury Interior On Display at Asian Aerospace

Asian Aerospace attendees have their first chance to see the Cessna Caravan sporting its new luxurious, jet-like interior. The 1000th 208B Grand Caravan, which will be on display throughout the show (held February 24-29, 2004), is owned and operated by retail customer Supap Puranitee.

The 1000th 208B Grand Caravan is one of the few precursors to the OASIS interior that is now offered by Cessna and Yingling Aviation, an authorized Cessna Pilot Center and Service Station in Wichita (KS). Cessna and Yingling Aviation have established an agreement that enables Caravan customers to order their Yingling OASIS interior from Cessna for installation by Yingling under their exclusive STC. This arrangement allows customers to have their Yingling OASIS interior crafted concurrently with the production of their aircraft and take delivery of their new Caravan in a simplified delivery process.

"The OASIS interior sets a very high standards for quality, style and reliability. As Cessna handles all of the interior installation logistics, it saves the customer time and avoids many potential pitfalls," said John Doman, Vice President of Worldwide Propeller Aircraft Sales.

The Caravan OASIS interior provides seating configurations for up to 10 people with two forward facing seats behind the crew, a four-place club seating area with executive side tables, and aft divan seating for two incorporating a standard flushing toilet approved for occupancy during takeoff and landing. The veneer or laminate wood cabinetry features two standard forward cabinets, one providing a convenient refreshment center, while the other is available for pilot materials and general storage applications. Electronic equipment including the latest high-tech entertainment systems, telecommunications, and flight data displays are also available as options.

To date, Yingling has completed eight Caravan OASIS interiors and has scheduled seven more for completion in 2004.
