Damage history

1970 ground damage resulted in replacement of the rudder and left elevator. Repairs completed to factory specifications.

2010 left wingtip hangar-rash damage. Properly repaired; LED landing lights installed at that time.

This is a very useful 172 with considerably better performance and load-carrying capability than a stock 172K. The 180 HP O-360, 1,070 lb useful load, and 42-gallon fuel capacity make it a strong traveling airplane while retaining the simplicity and operating characteristics of a 172.
