Several comments have been made under the 170 vs 182 topic as to what is the all time best looking series of Cessna's. I think this will make an interesting topic by itself. I'll start it. 1st 190/195, 2nd 145/165, 3rd 170, 4th 180/185 (would tie with 170 except for tail), and 5th 120/140, in my opinion.
Hey Harold. My wife once said that our 170 was just a stepping stone to the 190/195 so we know what she thinks. Of the Cessna line I would go 170, L-19 then all the rest of the tail draggers with the swept tail conversions last.
CAUTION - My forum posts may be worth what you paid for them!
