Cessna 172

Summary

One of the most popular touring aircraft of all time, the Cessna 172 has gained a place in the history books.  It is an American built four seat, high wing single engine aircraft with fixed tricycle undercarrage.  It is powered by a 160HP 4 cylinder Lycoming engine. The 172 is the most popular and successful  aircraft ever built.  As at 2008 more than 43,000 units have been produced. Like the 152, the 172 is also popular for flight training and with a faster cruise speed and two more seats are great for cross country flights.
