"Thanks to the ingenuity of our team and
partners, today's announcement further
demonstrates that the Cessna Grand Caravan EX
can work or play in almost any theater, region
or topography in the world," O'Bannion said.
"This is the sport utility aircraft for
practically any mission the customer might have
in mind, business or recreation."
The EX is the latest example of Cessna's efforts
to bring new products to customers. Six new or
upgraded Cessna models, including the EX, will
deliver during 2013 giving customers more
choices for optimal range, performance and
value.
