Sporty’s unveils 2016 ornament

By General Aviation News Staff · October 7, 2016 ·

This year, Sporty’s Christmas ornament — the 32nd in the series — features the iconic Cessna 140.

Created from crystal, the Cessna 140 is etched on the ornament along with “Christmas 2016.”

“Who doesn’t love this little tailwheel?” asks Sporty’s Vice President John Zimmerman. “The Cessna 140 also boosted Cessna’s transition to a post-war economy with thousands built starting from 1946 to when production stopped in 1951.”

The ornament includes a red ribbon for hanging and is boxed for gift giving.

Sporty’s 2016 Crystal Christmas Ornament is available for $24.95.
