About the Cessna 177

The Cessna 177 Cardinal is the sleek, strut-less high-wing single Cessna designed as a "172 successor" in the late 1960s — better visibility, a cantilever wing, swept tail and a cruise of roughly 124 kt on early fixed-gear models up to ~148 kt on the 177RG retractable. Production ran 1968-1978. The retractable 177RG Cardinal RG is the faster variant (~150 kt). Loved by owners for its handling, visibility and ramp presence, the Cardinal has a small but devoted community.

Produced 1968–1978.
