Stinson 108

General Aviation and Light Aircraft

The Stinson 108 is an American four seat single engine light aircraft built by Stinson after the Second World War. Its fabric covered high wing and roomy cabin made it a popular choice for personal and business flying in the immediate postwar years, when returning veterans and a booming light aircraft market drove strong demand for exactly this kind of family airplane.
