The Cessna 172 has earned its reputation as the world s benchmark training aircraft for good reason. Its forgiving handling, excellent stability, predictable stall characteristics make it ideal for ab-initio training. These same qualities also translate perfectly into private ownership, where pilots value the confidence-inspiring nature of the aircraft, low operating costs and straightforward maintenance. For touring, the 172 offers comfortable seating, generous visibility and the ability to operate from a wide range of airfields, making it equally at home on local flights or longer cross-country trips. The 172 M model in particular is widely regarded as one of the sweet spots in the 172 lineage. It offers improved aerodynamics and performance over earlier variants while operating the preferred Lycoming O-320 engine. The result is an aircraft that is engaging to fly, yet remains easy to operate and economical to run. Plus being a Reims-built example further enhances the long-term appeal of this airframe. G-BCYR is equipped with a capable avionics fit, including an Avidyne IFD440 GPS/Nav/Com, Garmin GNC255A Nav/Com, and a Garmin GTX330 Transponder, providing a cockpit well suited to training or private use. With its recent annual, sensible engine time, and attractive specification, this aircraft is ready to go.
