• In the early 1960s Cessna decided to expand their already wide line of light aircraft by entering the agricultural aircraft market. They surveyed pilots and operators of other brands of agricultural aircraft to see what features and capabilities these operators were looking for. The resulting aircraft was a conventional single-seat, piston-powered, strut-braced low-winged agricultural airplane.

US gallon hopper with a turbo-charged and fuel-injected 310 hp (230kW) Continental TSIO-520-T engine powering a three-bladed constant speed McCauley propeller. The bigger engine resulted in the AGhusky being seven inches longer than the other 188 models. Gross weight on this version was 4400 lb (1995 kg). Initial standard price when production started in 1979 was $60,350 and the final base price in 1983 was $102,600. The AGhusky ended its production run after four years in 1983.
