This is generally a cheap way to learn to fly in an aircraft. As they are considered one of the easiest planes to fly, we recommend getting your footing in a Cessna. Landing a is much like most other light aircraft, if you've had experience doing so before. The main thing to keep in mind when landing is to line the nose of the aircraft at the aiming point on the runway, and then to round off the angle of the plane at 15ft.
When the wheels hit the tarmac, it's important for the nose to be slightly up, and to control the air speed so the tail doesn't hit the runway. If you have these two things in mind, you won't have any issues with an unbalanced grounding.
A safe landing will require a minimum speed, full stall and low energy approach. The following video provides with some simple basics on how to land a Cessna. It's a good starting point, however it doesn't compare to being in the cabin and having proper landing training! How awesome is the instructors voice too!

Put simply, the Cessna fatality rate is 0. This gives it the lowest fatal accident rate in private aviation. The aggregated private aviation fatality rate sits at 1. As with any single engine plane, there is a heightened risk if an engine were to fail. This risk is inevitable, and to counteract this, the company put great focus into building one of the most reliable engines in the private aircraft industry. Statistics show that very few crashes have been attributed to engine failure, and most are correlated with extreme weather conditions.
The was designed with the student in mind, and hence built a reliable aircraft with easy landing features. Cessna's marketing efforts shortly after the was introduced promoted low landing speeds and agile performance. This qualities made it more flexible to unplanned landings with immediate notice.
As many private aircraft fatalities occur during unexpected landings, it meant that the was more reliable and adapt to contingencies than other aircraft. This is indicative of it's fantastic safety rating.
Recent studies suggest there are on average fatal crashes worldwide in Cessna 's. It's evident that very few fatalities are a result of the aircraft itself, which is indicative of it's reliability. It's also worth noting that almost none of the fatal accidents have occurred during flight training procedures. Given the fact that the is more accessible to all pilots, it's no surprise that almost all of the accidents have been due to human involvement.
It could be argued that the pilots of the 's themselves are more likely to cause an accident, yet the fatality rates still sits well below the general aviation aggregated average. Given that there are so many variations and features of the Cessna , the cost to buy one varies massively.
The best way to get a good idea of the used market for aircraft is to follow Facebook groups like this. There are several new listings for sales each week. As mentioned above, Textron does not advertise a retail price for a brand new Cessna From the 70's onwards, prices were rising fairly consistently at about double each decade. Buying a used aircraft is a much more feasible option for most pilots, particularly if you're starting out.
A quick Google Search will pull up a number of listings and there's plenty of syndicate opportunities for shared aircraft ownership. Sites like trade-a-plane are usually a good place to start looking for used planes. Many of the cheaper used Cessna's are in good condition, however repair and running costs can get quite steep for planes over 50 years old. But on the flip side, they have such a beautiful charm about them! This would have you own one-tenth of the airplane.
