1978 CESSNA 177RG, FAST RETRACT, 4 Seats, Business tax write off, family vacation, TT 3064, SMOH 2, 200 HP Lycoming, new McCauley Black Max Three Blade Propeller, Long range 60 gal fuel, Range about 800 miles, cruise speed of about 170 MPH (143 knots Garmin 430 WASS upgraded to IFR, Stec 60 Autopilot, Mode S Transponder, overhauled Bendix magnetos, 48" cabin is fully 6 inches wider than a Cherokee’s, signature features are wide doors and aft-positioned leading edge for good in-flight visibility. The baggage compartment is enormous and relatively easy to get to through a dedicated door. As noted, the airplane’s wing sits higher and farther back, allowing excellent visibility out of the panoramic windshield. Unlike the other high-wing Cessnas, the pilot’s vision up and to the side is not blocked by the wing. To a degree, this gives the pilot some of the best of both worlds—good visibility down and to the side and less high-wing blockage of vision above the airplane. The Cardinal’s enormous doors offer another benefit: of all airplane models we’re familiar with, it’s the easiest to get in and out of. There’s no wing strut to get in the way and the floor sits lower to the ground. Exterior and interior 7 of 10, Tires good, 4 Place intercom, push to Talk Buttons; May 2018 annual.
