Jay, I can see the ground without having to look forward, backward, or
tip a wing. (I have Cherokee time). But, then again, the turn to final
is a bit obstructed.

It really is amazing to think that powered flight is only a bit over a
century old, and the Skyhawk has been flying for almost half that time.
Cessna really got it right.

Of course, one could also take the pessimistic viewpoint and bemoan the
lack of innovation for those 50 years. But it's truly hard to argue
with success.

Now, if only they would put the danged wing on the proper side!
