Remarks:

Wilco Aviation are pleased to announce the exclusive listing of this exceptional Reims Cessna F172N Skyhawk, powered by a robust 160 HP Lycoming engine. Currently based at Redhill, this aircraft is in excellent condition and ready for its next adventure.

Designated as “India Mike,” this Skyhawk is IFR and night-capable, making it ideal for pilots who demand versatility and reliability. It’s further enhanced with the installation of dual Garmin G5s, ensuring modern avionics and superior in-flight performance.

The Skyhawk N, also known as the Skyhawk/100, was first introduced in the 1977 model year, marking a new chapter in Cessna’s history. The “100” designation refers to its Lycoming O-320-H2AD engine, which delivers 160 horsepower (119 kW) and runs on 100-octane fuel—an upgrade from its predecessors that required 80/87 fuel. This particular aircraft, built under license by Reims in France, also benefits from factory-applied corrosion-proofing treatment, ensuring longevity and durability.

The Cessna 172 Skyhawk is the world’s most iconic four-seat, single-engine, high-wing aircraft. First flown in 1955, the Skyhawk has surpassed all others in terms of production numbers and popularity, with over 44,000 units built as of 2015. Developed from the 1948 Cessna 170, the 172 revolutionised general aviation with its tricycle landing gear, replacing the older tail-dragger design.

This is a rare opportunity to own a fully equipped, well-maintained Cessna F172N Skyhawk, a true legend in aviation history.
