Detailed Description

This Cessna 172M is a beautiful, well-equipped, and meticulously maintained aircraft that is ready for work or play. Featuring an Aspen PFD and Garmin avionics with ADS-B In and Out, it is equally suited as a capable personal aircraft or as an excellent addition to an existing fleet.

With a low-time engine, low airframe time, and attractive paint, this airplane presents exceptionally well. It has been owned by the same owner for the past 38 years and has had only three owners since new (plus the original dealer), reflecting a long history of stable and careful ownership.
