Introduction This report details the basis on which Type Acceptance Certificate No.18/21B/4 was granted in the Standard Category in accordance with NZCAR Part 21 Subpart B. Specifically the report aims to: (a) Specify the foreign type certificate and associated airworthiness design standard used for type acceptance of the models in New Zealand; and (b) Identify any special conditions for import applicable to any models covered by the Type Acceptance Certificate; and (c) Identify any additional requirements which must be complied with prior to the issue of a NZ Airworthiness Certificate or for any subsequent operations. The report covers all models included on the State-of-Design type certificate which have been granted type acceptance in New Zealand.

Type Acceptance Report TAR 18/21B/4 – Cessna 337 Series Rev.0 : 24 August 2017 4 3. Application Details and Background Information The application for New Zealand type acceptance for all the Models of the Cessna 337 Series not previously included in the type acceptance certificate was from the type certificate holder, who has provided access to all technical publications. The Cessna 337 is a strut-braced high- wing all metal six-seat light aircraft with retractable undercarriage and twin-engines in an unusual front tractor and rear pusher in-line configuration. Type Acceptance Certificate No. 18/21B/4 was granted on 24 August 2017 to the Cessna 337 Series based on validation of FAA Type Certificate number A6CE. There are no special requirements for import into New Zealand. The twin-boom “centre-line-thrust” Cessna Model 337 was type certificated in 1964. The 337 Series followed the typical Cessna annual model evolution of gradual improvements over the years. A turbocharged version was produced from 1967 through to 1971, and reintroduced from 1978. A pressurised version was available from 1973 through to the end of production, though confusingly it was initially known as the T337G with P337xxxxx serial numbers. A new Model P337H was introduced in 1978 separate to the T337H. The first example of the Cessna 337 Skymaster Series in New Zealand was a Model 337C

registered ZK-DAQ. This was followed by a Model 337 ZK-DFT and two Model 337G ZK- DRO and ZK-DSC. There has been one Model 337F ZK-TAI, and three examples of the pressurised Model T337G, ZK-FZA, ZK-THL and ZK-TSH. Type Acceptance Report Rev.0 : 24 August 2017 TAR 18/21B/4 – Cessna 337 Series 5 4.
