“1978 Cessna 172N former flight school bird. This is a 37 year old airplane so read my description and look at the pictures. The plane needs cosmetic TLC like paint and interior or just fly it as is”
Make: Cessna Model Year: 1978
1978 Cessna 172N 180hp Penn Yan SuperHawk with Increased gross weight STC, Powerflow exhaust, and flap gap seals , Lord shimmy mod, ignition booster, 8413 TT, 2792 SMOH, 973 STOH, fresh annual July 2015, FAA tsp check Aug 2015, new lord cowl mounts, new battery, new nose wheel pant not installed, Nose strut re-shimmed. New fuel caps, New fuel dipstick. This may not be the prettiest bird but she flies great and is fast for a 172. Times will change since it"s flown regularly. Has old hail damage from back in 2002, logbook has one hail damage entry (2002). The paint shop said it would add 1.5K on top of the basic paint price to fix the hail dents. Other than that just the normal minor dings here and there from use as a flight school bird until 2014. I rescued her and now it"s time for somebody to finish the job and make her new again. The top was done with a cylinder kit and the engine has strong compression. After closing the deal and providing insurance I can deliver the plane anywhere in the US for expenses. Plane is for sale on Barnstormers and locally. I reserve the right to cancel this auction if plane sells through over venues. Plane is sold as is where is. I had to re-list do to high bidder cancelling. Please DO NOT BID if you don"t have the money or don"t understand you are buying a 37 year old flight school airplane.
