About the Airbus A330-700 - Beluga XL
The Cessna 337 Skymaster is one of aviation's most distinctive light twins, instantly recognizable by its unusual centerline thrust configuration with one engine mounted on the nose and another on a rear boom pushing from behind. Introduced in 1963 and produced through 1980, this push-pull design eliminated the asymmetric thrust problems that complicate single-engine operations in conventional twins, making it significantly easier to fly on one engine and earning it a reputation as a safer, more forgiving twin for owner-pilots. Cessna built over 2,000 Skymasters in various configurations, including the pressurized P337 and the military O-2 observation variant that saw extensive service in Vietnam as a forward air control platform.
The layout also provided excellent visibility and allowed the aircraft to maintain reasonable performance even with one engine out, though it came at the cost of increased complexity and maintenance challenges associated with the rear engine's cooling and accessibility. With a maximum takeoff weight of 4,630 pounds and a never-exceed speed of 198 knots, the Skymaster occupies a unique niche in general aviation as a capable cross-country twin that trades raw speed for docile handling and practical load-carrying ability. SkyMeter has tracked flights across airframes and operators, covering routes.
