question in it

what are are the differences between the new Cessna Single Engine aircraft and the old pre-1986 ones?

A: When Cessna restarted single engine piston aircraft production in 1996, a number of aircraft improvements were incorporated. In addition, new manufacturing and paint process improvements have increased the overall fit and finish of the restart aircraft. Below are just a few of the changes made to the standard aircraft.

Certification basis Part 23 (as amended) vs. outdated CAR 3
Lycoming fuel-injected engines
Improved state-of-the-art avionics. Standard G1000 "glass panel" avionics offered on all models.
Improved paint and application processes
Long range, integral wet wing tanks with fuel filler tabs in each wing
New and improved, ergonomically designed automotive style interiors
Stainless steel control cables
Corrosion proofing. All sheet metal parts are epoxy primered.
Improved tri-level cabin ventilation
Tinted acrylic plastic windows (.25" thick)
Increased number of wing fuel sumps (five per wing)
Dual engine-driven vacuum pumps
Auxiliary electric fuel pump (backup to the engine driven fuel pump)
Fewer firewall penetrations with improved fire-resistant sealing around bulkhead feed-throughs
Standardized all-metal, segmented instrument panel
Standardized three-inch backlit backup instrumentation equipped with non-glare glass
Improved "beefed up" Caravan style seat rails
Dual-pin single point release seats (pilot/co-pilot) for quick and safe fore/aft seat adjustments
Improved vertical seat adjustment (pilot and copilot seats)
Inertia reel shoulder harnesses (all seats)
Recessed spring loaded wing tie-down rings (182/206)
Improved maintenance access points
