The Modern Evolution of Legendary Taildraggers

At Bushliner, we recognize the legendary history of Cessna’s taildraggers, which were pioneers of their time, renowned for their performance and timeless design. However, we understand that as these aircraft age, they can become a liability, requiring extensive restoration efforts to meet safety, legal, and performance standards. That’s why we proudly present the Bushliner 1850—an exceptional alternative for aviation enthusiasts seeking the best of both worlds.

Cessna’s taildraggers have legendary-history. In the 40’s through 80’s when they were mass-produced, they were cutting edge aircraft and decades later are still sought after for their performance and styling. After years of wear and use these aircraft are becoming a liability. To simply bring them up to safety, legal, and performance standards a person looking for a DIY project has to start with the purchase of one that appears to be in the least worst condition, and then begin the process of tearing into it to discover the true condition of the aircraft. Weibull suggests that failures will accumulate statistically over hours and years. This means that for existing airframes, more repairs will be needed than can continually be accomplished.
