About the Cessna 172S

The Cessna 172S Skyhawk SP is the current-production Skyhawk — a 180-hp fuel-injected Lycoming IO-360 (1998 onward), the most powerful standard 172 and the model most flight schools buy new, usually with a Garmin G1000 panel. The extra 20 hp over the older 160-hp Skyhawks adds useful load and climb while keeping the forgiving handling that made the 172 the default trainer. Against a cheaper used 172N/P the decision is modern avionics, lower airframe age and fuel-injection convenience versus price.

Produced 1998.
