The
Cessna 190 and 195 were Cessna's only post-war radial-engined
aircraft. The main difference between the two was choice of
engine. The protoype (the P-780) first flew in 1945.
The U.S. Air Force acquired the 15 Model 195s
which were designated the LC-126. They were used as
light transports suitable for arctic service.
Over 1,100 190 and 195 aircraft were produced from
1947 to 1953.
