The Reims F337H Super Skymaster is the penultimate normally-aspirated variant in the Reims F337 family, featuring the same centreline-thrust push-pull layout as all its predecessors.
Recognition (WEFT)
| W — Wings | High-mounted, straight |
|---|---|
| E — Engines | 2 × piston, fuselage-mounted |
| F — Fuselage | 9.07 m fuselage |
| T — Tail | Twin fin |
WEFT is AircraftIQ's four-point recognition method — how it works.
Spot it by:
- Centreline-thrust push-pull twin engine layout
- Twin-boom tail configuration
- French Reims licence-built Cessna 337
The F337H is visually identical to earlier Reims F337 sub-variants; the twin-boom, high-wing, push-pull engine arrangement is unmistakeable and unique in the light-aircraft world.

History
As one of the final variants in the French Skymaster line, the F337H benefited from accumulated production refinements and was manufactured in parallel with the pressurised FP337H and turbocharged FT337G. Production wound down as the light twin market contracted in the late 1970s and early 1980s.
Variants
The H sub-variant runs concurrently with the pressurised FP337H and turbocharged FT337G; together they form the third generation of French Skymaster production.
Where you'll see it
Found with private operators and training organisations across Europe; some examples remain airworthy in the vintage aircraft community decades after production ended.
