Manufactured between 1961 and 1985, the six-seater, powerful single engine Cessna 185 is an absolute classic. It is considered by many experts as the ultimate bush airplane, and a large part of the 4400 units produced are still in operation today.
And for maximum fun and adventure, I opted for the float-modded, amphibian version.
