Requirements of cross country flying for single and twin engine planes, such as stability and desirable stall characteristics; takeoffs and landings are simple maneuvers because of inherent stability of tricycle gear, improved steering, and dependable braking; future development considers instrument flying and aerodynamic refinements to provide better spiral stability in approach configuration, reduced trim changes resulting from improved flaps, gear, and power; new tandem twin Cessna Skymaster featuring center line thrust, which eliminates asymmetric thrust problem.
