The Classic
Skyhawk:
Even today the Cessna 172 continues to be the airplane most commonly
associated with general aviation. It's been built in such
numbers that the word ubiquitous seems hardly sufficient for
describing the Skyhawk. The 172s characteristic high-wing shape,
dependable performance and pleasant handling have provided millions
of happy hours in the air for thousands of pilots.
