	Cessna 172SP Skyhawk
		The Cessna 172 is more like the love of your life—a steady, constant companion to fly with for a long time to come.
		A stable and trustworthy plane, most pilots have logged at least a few hours in a Cessna 172, since it's the most widely available aircraft in the rental fleet and is used by most flight schools.
		In the 1960s and '70s, Cessna vied for attention and respectability by attempting to build a hardworking airplane that could be easily flown by nearly anyone.

	FlightSim.Com Review: Flight1 Cessna 172
		Now that the 152 is no longer in production, the 172 is the aircraft of choice for many flight training schools and with such a long pedigree it is hard to question it as a choice.
		The 172 is also a favourite tourer, given that it is comfortable and can be operated out of an unpaved 2000 foot strip thanks to that high wing and generous flap area.
		About as much like a Cessna 172 as it is possible for an FS plane to be, is my assessment, unless you can actually get configuration manager to work in FSX and choose to use the 'more stable flight dynamics'.

	Cessna 172 - Worlds Most Popular Airplane
		Cessna had begun building general aviation aircraft at Witchita in the thirties, concentrating on high wing singles, the company produces some outstanding machines powered by radial engines, but this design began to emerge as the war ended.
		Now the 172 was already being produced with tricycle gear and a sleak fuslage, but in 63 came this version with its back windows, slopped tail and it was a winner.
		Cessna is once again churning out brand new versions and another company is producing a plastic, all composite aircraft based on the 172 design.

	Cessna 172 from Fiddlers Green- an easy to build Card Model
		Cessna expected the new 172 to have only limited success, in view of the release of the Cessna 177 Cardinal at the same time.
		The 172 was designed to replace the Cessna 170, which used conventional (tailwheel) gear instead of tricycle (nosewheel) gear.
		Cessna produced a retractable-gear version of the 172 named the 177RG Cutlass, and also produced versions on floats.

	Cesnna 172 – Reliable 4 Seat Aircraft -172
		Cessna thought it would quickly overtake the popularity of the Cessna 172, given that the 177 Cardinal combined Cessna's highly regarded reliability with modern good looks and a contemporary feel.
		The Cessna 172 continued to outsell the 177 Cardinal by a wide margin and finally ended up outliving the Cardinal too.
		As a result, the Cessna 172N was fitted with a Lycoming O-320-H, which increased the horsepower to 160.

	AOPA Flight Training - Pick Your Own Skyhawk
		While it's easy to assume that Cessna answered the industry need for a simple, low-cost complex trainer by grabbing a 172 fuselage off the shelf and swapping the fixed landing gear for one of the company's retractable landing gear systems, technically these two airplanes come from different branches of the Cessna tree.
		The 172RG falls under the same type certificate as the Cessna 175 (a 172-like fuselage with a 175-hp Continental GO-300 engine, larger fuel tanks, and a 2,350-pound gross weight), the Hawk XP (with a 195-hp Continental IO-360 engine), and the R172 airplanes that were sold almost exclusively as military trainers under the T–41 moniker.
		Jensen's 172, one of the last models that was powered by the oh-so-smooth six-cylinder Continental, allows Jensen to flight plan for 105 knots with a fuel consumption rate of eight gallons per hour.

	AOPA Online: Cessna 172 Safety Review
		The overloaded Cessna had climbed to about 300 feet when, after entering the turn, it was observed to nose over and lose about half its altitude.
		The 172 has four seats; but unless the fuel load is light, the odds are that the aircraft will be overloaded when the seats are filled — unless you're carrying munchkins.
		Not surprisingly, the 172 had about one third the number of fuel starvation accidents, compared to the other airplanes, all of which require tank switching.

		First of all, while you consider this a twenty or twenty five thousand dollar airplane, to the Cessna Aircraft Co. it is a one hundred sixty thousand dollar aircraft, because that is what it sells for new today.
		Operating costs of the older CESSNA 172 SKYHAWK are no less than on a later model.
		In fact, they might actually be somewhat higher if you acquire a pre-1968 172 SKYHAWK, because the six cylinder Continental O-300 engine costs more to maintain and overhaul than the four cylinder Lycoming used in the later model CESSNA 172 SKYHAWKS, the Lycoming O-320-H2AD used from 1977 thru 1980 excepted.
