The most comfortable and safe places on the plane
Like in any other airplane, the safest seats in a Cessna 40 are located in the rear of the cabin as they are further away from the front where the engine is located. Additionally, passengers seated in the rear can have a better view of what is happening around the aircraft.
The most comfortable seats in a Cessna 40 depend on the passengers' preferences. If you want to have the best view from the window, it is best to sit by the window. If you want to quickly exit the airplane after landing, it is best to sit by the exit.
It is also worth considering that seats in a Cessna 40 are located very close to each other, so if you want more legroom, it is best to sit by the exit or by the rear cabin wall.
