1961 CESSNA 172B, SWEPT TAIL, 720CH NAV-COM, IN ANNUAL, FLYING, CHEAP !!
THIS 1961 172 HAS A SWEPT TAIL, NOT THE OLD STRAIGHT TAIL
EQUIPPED WITH A 720 CHANNEL NAV-COM THAT WORKS GOOD, AND A 2ND ONE WHICH NEEDS WORK
0-300D 6 CYLINDER CONTINENTAL ENGINE HAS 2275 SMOH, BUT ONLY 525 SINCE TOP OVERHAUL. STARTS EASILY AND RUNS WELL
UPGRADES INCLUDE:
SHOULDER HARNESSES FOR BOTH FRONT SEATS
CLEVELAND WHEELS AND BRAKES
2 NEW SLICK MAGS 2009
CURRENTLY IN USE !!
LAST FLOWN ONE WEEK AGO.
ANNUAL INSPECTION CURRENT UNTIL 5/31/2016 !!
I FLEW IT MYSELF FOR ALMOST AN HOUR LAST WEEK, WITH THE FOLLOWING SQUAWKS:
2ND 720 CHANNEL NAV-COM POWERS UP, BUT DOES NOT SEEM TO RECEIVE.
PRIMARY 720 CHANNEL RADIO TRANSMITS AND RECEIVES WELL.
VACUMN PUMP IS INOP
COMPASS IS OUT OF FLUID
THE ENGINE STARTS EASILY, IDLES AND RUNS SMOOTHLY, AND PRODUCES GOOD POWER
THERE SEEM TO BE SOME OIL LEAKS, AS THERE IS SOME OIL DRIPPING INTO THE COWLING
EXTERNALLY, THERE IS SOME SCATTERED HAIL. NOT AN AIRWORTHINESS ISSUE, JUST COSMETIC
THERE ARE A FEW SMALL DINGS ON THE AFT TAILCONE, TWO ON TOP THE SIZE OF QUARTERS OR LESS, AND A SMALL "PUSH" ON THE BOTTOM EDGE (SHOWN). THESE ALL COULD BE MESSAGED, IF YOU CARE TOO, BUT THE AIRPLANE FLYS FINE
THE YELLOW PAINT MAKES THIS AIRPLANE STAND OUT, AND IT LOOKS GOOD OVERALL, BUT THE TOPS OF THE WINGS HAVE BEEN TOUCHED UP WITH A YELLOWISH GREEN PRIMER ON THE SEAMS, SO WHEN YOU GET CLOSER, AND LOOK AT THE TOPS OF THE WINGS, IT IS NOTICEABLE, BUT AS YOU TAXI BY SOMEONE THEY WILL NEVER SEE IT !!
THE INTERIOR IS PERFECTLY PASSABLE WITH NEUTRAL COLORED SEATS.
THIS IS NOT A PERFECT AIRPLANE, BUT IT FLYS PERFECTLY FINE, AND IS PERFECTLY LEGAL, AND IT MAY BE THE CHEAPEST 4 PLACE CROSS-COUNTRY CAPABLE, IN ANNUAL AIRPLANE YOU CAN BUY !!

Check out my other items!Be sure to add me to your favorites list! WENTWORTH AIRCRAFT DOES NOT OBTAIN REPAIR ESTIMATES, AS WE DO NOT REPAIR ANY OF OUR AIRPLANES. WE ONLY FACILITATE THE SALE OF REBUILDABLE AIRCRAFT TO THOSE DESIRING TO SAVE MONEY OR HAVE MORE AIRPLANE THAN OTHERWISE POSSIBLE FOR THE MONEY. REPAIR OF ANY AIRCRAFT WILL DEPEND ON MANY FACTORS, SUCH AS AVAILABILITY OF USED PARTS, LABOR RATE OF THE REPAIR FACILITY, FAMILIARITY WITH THE AIRCRAFT, ETC. AND WE WOULD NEVER PRESUME TO ESTIMATE THIS NUMBER FOR A BUYER. BEWARE OF THOSE WHO OBVIOUSLY GIVE UNREALISTICALLY LOW "ESTIMATES" FOR THE REPAIR OF THE DAMAGED AIRCRAFT THEY SELL. THIS ITEM IS BEING SOLD WITH A LOW RESERVE, THEREFORE WE FULLY EXPECT THIS LISTING WILL SELL TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER AT THE CLOSE OF THIS AUCTION, SO BID EARLY AND BID HIGH. THERE WILL BE NO CHANCE TO BUY THIS ITEM LATER!! AS WE SET OUR BUY-IT-NOW SO LOW, MANY OF OUR AIRPLANES SELL BY THIS METHOD BEFORE THE END OF THE AUCTION.
