To-day I took another look at one of my favorite display aircraft. It's not a Six, or any kind of fighter, for that matter. It is a Cessna 195. Typical Cessna high-wing. post-war design, with the flexible main landing gear. Has a Jacobs 300 H.P., R-755 engine. It is one of the best looking birds Cessna ever built and many are still in use. This one has been sitting in the same spot for a number of years, and probably will for more. It sits near the entrance to Condor Flats, the home of Soaring Over California in Disney's California Adventure. You know, the sister park to Disneyland in Anaheim. Yep that's where De and I are this week. Just thought I would let you know about the Cessna in case some of you have never been here. Yes, we are doing more than looking at an old Cessna. Really enjoying our selves at both parks. Jim :god_bless_usa
