Cessna P337 Pressurized Skymaster

The Cessna P337 Pressurized Skymaster combined the family’s centreline thrust layout with a pressurised cabin for high-altitude travel. Its front-and-rear engines avoid the asymmetric thrust of ordinary twins, a useful safety feature. The pressurised version is much rarer than standard Skymasters.

The P337 pairs the Skymaster's front-and-rear centreline-thrust layout, which avoids asymmetric thrust if an engine fails, with a pressurised cabin for high-altitude flight.
