Textron Aviation Special Missions has delivered two Cessna 206 Turbo Stationair HD airplanes to the U.S. Military Academy (USMA) at West Point, New York, for its cadet aviation training program, the unit of the Wichita-based airframer announced this week. These 206s join other Cessna airplanes such as the T-41 and 182 Skylane that have served the USMA’s academic flight program over a number of decades. Of note, Textron Aviation president and CEO Ron Draper is a 1990 graduate of the USMA.
