The Cessna Model 620 was a pressurized eight to 10 seat business airplane powered by four piston engines. First flight was on 11 August 1956. Only one example (c/n 620, N620E) was built.[1]
The airplane's model number is an inside joke, it's twice the airplane of a Cessna 310. [2]
A promotional film titled Eye to the Sky was produced as a recruiting tool for new engineers. The 620 was canceled the day after it was first shown to students at Wichita State University.[2]
