172M Skyhawk
WILCO Aviation are pleased to have just exclusively listed this beautiful Cessna 172M Skyhawk powered by an extremely low time Lycoming 150 HP O-320 engine. The aircraft is currently located in the South West of England at Dunkeswell Airfield.
The Cessna 172 Skyhawk is an American four-seat, single-engine, high wing, fixed-wing aircraft made by the Cessna Aircraft Company. First flown in 1955, more 172s have been built than any otheraircraft. It was developed from the 1948 Cessna 170, using tricycle undercarriage, rather than a tail-dragger configuration.
The 172M of 1973–76 gained a drooped wing leading edge for improved low-speed handling. This was marketed as the “camber-lift” wing.
In 1976, Cessna stopped marketing the aircraft as the 172 and began exclusively using the “Skyhawk” designation. This model year also saw a redesigned instrument panel to hold more avionics. Among other changes, the fuel and other small gauges were relocated to the left side for improved pilot readability compared with the earlier 172 panel designs. Total production of “M” models was 7306 over the four years it was manufactured.
Echo Zulu benefits from having a factory new extremely low hour in calendar time engine as well as being fully IFR and night capable with the added Aspen E5 Evolution EFIS perfect for flight training schools or hire and reward as well as the private owner operator
Measured by its longevity and popularity, the Cessna 172 is the most successful aircraft in history. Cessna delivered the first production model in 1956, and as of 2015, the company and its partners had built more than 44,000 units. The aircraft remains in production today.
