For many people, the Cessna 208 Grand Caravan is their favorite piece of aviation hardware ever. It's recognized by many users as something with a genuine bit of class about it, which is evidenced quite clearly on the fact that it's been in common use for over thirty years. Not many aircraft last this long, but the longevity and strength of this aircraft makes it much easier to understand; this was built to be sturdy and strong.  In fact, the whole thing is capable of semi-long range flights with up to fourteen passengers on-board, which is pretty rare for an aircraft of this size.

The aircraft itself manages to capture the attention of so many people thanks to the changes it's had over the years. Most aircraft with three decades of life behind them don't tend to have new changes. However, in 2008, a Garmin G1000 glass cockpit was included to provide greater stability.

The aircraft itself was first launched in 1982 as a prototype, using a single-engine turboprop and a fixed landing gear. It was originally designed for utility transport and the like, but it's easy and effective style soon seen it changing tact and being used for people transport as well. The aircrafts main legacy, though, has been as a part of the FedEx family; its' regularly used by their teams across the globe thanks to its durability and its ease of flying for newer pilots.
