Why didn't the Cessna 337 make it?
Looking at the design of the C377, it seems like it should have been more of
a winner. Why did it flop? Dallas |

Why didn't the Cessna 337 make it?
It made a poor multi trainer for FBOs because the FAA would not issue
"full" multiengine ratings to students who took their checkrides in it. -Robert |

A 'centerline only' thrust limitation to the ME rating. |

A 'centerline only' thrust limitation to the ME rating. Not only that, but if you have a regular multiengine rating, you still can't fly the thing unless you get a type rating (or somesuch) for it.

Not true I think.
If you had a multi-engine rating, a normal checkout was FAA approved if I remember correctly. I don't believe the center line thrust rating was mandatory above the regular multi if already held.

Jose "Centerline thrust only" is a limitation, not a priveledge. The 336, 337 and 0-2 did not require a type rating. Dave |

Why didn't the Cessna 337 make it?
Not correct, at least in the USA. There are some jets that
don't have a Vmca as such because the engines are so close to the centerline and although they have two engines, they don't meet the FAA requirement for issuing an unrestricted multiengine certificate. If you obtain your multiengine certificate in such an airplane you are issued a multiengine rating with the centerline thrust limitation. But as it is a turbojet/12.5 gw, a type rating is required also. The Cessna 337 is lighter than the weight floor for requiring a type rating and it is not a turbojet. -- James H.
