The Cessna Skymaster is a United States twin-engine civil utility aircraft built in a push-pull configuration. Instead of the engines being mounted on the wings, one is mounted in the nose and the other at the rear of the pod-style fuselage. The vertical stabilizers are mounted on twin booms that extend from the wings. The rear engine is between the booms and the horizontal stabilizer is aft of the pusher propeller, mounted between the two booms. The combination of a tractor and a pusher engine produces a unique sound. ______________________________________________________________
