Cessna Plane Men's T-Shirt

Clyde Cessna built and flew his first airplane in 1911, just 8 years after the Wright Brothers first took to the skies.  He would continue to work on wood and fabric aircraft in the following years until founding the Cessna-Roos Aircraft Company along with Victor Roos in 1927 in Wichita, Kansas.  Roos resigned after just one month with Cessna buying back his interest and beginning work on the Cessna DC-6.  The original Cessna brand was short lived with the Great Depression forcing it to shut down in 1932.  In 1934, Dwight and Dwayne Wallace took over the Cessna name and began establishing Cessna as one of the premier small aircraft companies in the world.  Although they did build some planes for Military use in WWII, Cessna quickly returned to commercial production in 1948, focusing on all-metal aircraft made from production parts, rather than the hand-built process.  In the following decades Cessna would introduce airplanes, such as the Cessna CH-1 and 172.  They would also develop a helicopter in 1955, and introduce their first jet in 1969.  Cessna continues to make  commercial airplanes, personal aircraft, and business class jets.  And, if you happen to fly Mokulele Airlines from one island to another in Hawaii, there is a good chance you'll be flying in a Cessna Caravan.
