The 140 stands out from other Cessnas with its unique "art deco", automotive style instrument panels. The interior layout is simply but comfortably furnished and everything is to hand. This made the aeroplane the ideal trainer and its near vice-less behaviour and inherent strength made it popular with flying clubs and flight schools everywhere.
Many 140s have been restored and continue to give service and pleasure to their owners, the world over. With modifications too numerous to mention, examples are used in air races, record attempts and extreme "bush-flying" with remarkable results.
Together with the 120, this little aircraft gave rise to the future Cessna line of affordable, multi-purpose airframes that have populated our skies for decades and continue to do so today.
