The Cessna 140 is a light two-seat general aviation aircraft. Most have 85 or 90 horsepower (63 or 67 kW) piston engines, and have a metal fuselage and fabric wings with metal control surfaces, although the later 140A model had metal wings as well. Production ended in the 1950s, and was later succeeded by the Cessna 150, another two-seat trainer. The larger Cessna 170 was essentially a resized 140 with a more powerful engine.

The Cessna 120 was a stripped-down version of the 140, produced at the same time, intended for the trainer market. It had the same engine as the 140, but it did not have flaps, and the cabin side "D" windows and electrical system (radio, lights, battery and starter) were optional.
