Cessna 162 Skycatcher
The Skycatcher is Harford Air’s light sport airplane and is also Cessna’s latest piston single design. This aircraft was designed specifically as a training aircraft for people to gain their recreational, sport, and private pilot’s licenses. The sport pilot’s license was created in September of 2004 with the intent of making flying more accessible and affordable. The requirements for a sport pilot’s license are different from the private pilot’s license with every effort to make it an easier, cheaper alternative.
