Detailed Description

1971 Cessna 177RG Cardinal - a standout in a market full of tired trainers. This aircraft has been treated to a full 2023 refresh inside and out, so instead of budgeting for paint and interior work, you're stepping into a plane that already looks (and feels) brand new. More importantly, the panel was brought fully up to date the same year with a modern IFR GPS/COM, ADS-B, and a digital engine monitor meaning no looming avionics upgrade costs, no ADS-B compliance headaches, and a cockpit that's ready for real IFR travel today. With a mid-time engine and well-documented history, this is a Cardinal RG you can buy with confidence and fly immediately, without a punch list waiting on the other end.
