Cessna's SkyCourier utility turboprop twin has won type certification from the National Civil Aviation Authority of Brazil (ANAC), parent company Textron Aviation said today at LABACE 2023. The approval allows for its delivery and operation in the expansive Brazilian market for regional, utility, and special-mission aircraft.

“The Cessna SkyCourier's high payload capacity, short takeoff and landing capability, and cost-efficiency make it a great choice for operators in Brazil,” said Lannie O’Bannion, Textron Aviation's senior v-p for global sales and flight operations. “The aircraft's versatility and performance equip customers in the region with smart solutions for their unique missions and circumstances.”
