Engine

Powered by a strong, reliable engine with only 682 hours since a major overhaul (SMOH). The engine demonstrates excellent health, showing great, consistent compressions across all cylinders. Meticulously maintained and ready for many more hours of trouble-free flying.

Avionics

Features a classic, reliable IFR 6-pack configuration equipped with Bendix King radios. Also includes a yoke-mounted Garmin GPSMAP 296 for enhanced situational awareness.

Interior

The exterior pops with a crisp white base accented by bold navy, orange, and teal striping - a classic Cessna scheme that still turns heads on the ramp. The paint presents clean and glossy, and the interior is in great shape, offering a comfortable, clean environment for training flights or long cross‑country days.

Detailed Description

The seller and Cody Coker present N6608R, a 1979 Cessna 172RG. This sharp‑looking Cessna 172RG Cutlass blends the reliability of a Skyhawk with the performance of a complex trainer, but what really sets N6608R apart is how good it looks doing it. The exterior pops with a crisp white base accented by bold navy, teal, and orange striping - a classic Cessna scheme that still turns heads on the ramp. The paint presents clean and glossy, giving the airplane a confident, well‑kept presence that matches how it flies.

Inside, the tan cloth interior is in great shape, offering a comfortable, clean environment for training flights or long cross‑country days.

Whether you're stepping up from fixed‑gear trainers or just want a little extra speed and style, N6608R delivers. It's a complex trainer with personality - dependable, good‑looking, and ready to stretch its legs.
