Textron Aviation is offering its Cessna SkyCourier with a gravel kit to enable operations from unimproved runways. Deliveries of the turboprop twin with the installed option will begin later this month.

“Cessna aircraft have been moving people and critically needed goods in and out of remote areas for decades, and this new capability allows SkyCourier customers to operate in some of the world’s most demanding environments,” said Lannie O’Bannion, senior v-p of sales and flight operations. “The addition of [the] gravel kit greatly enhances the already rugged reliability of the SkyCourier.”
