1955 Cessna 180Single-Engine Piston Aircraft

This 1955 Cessna 180 (Registration C-FICR) presents as a well-maintained example with 2,340 total airframe hours and a Continental O470J engine showing 870 hours since major overhaul, with 40 hours since a recent top overhaul. The McCauley propeller has 200 hours since its 2015 overhaul. Notable maintenance highlights include a freshly overhauled carburetor and airbox, recently replaced fuel bladders with Monarch caps, new flap tracks with roller kit, and a November 2023 annual inspection. The aircraft features a useful 24-volt electrical system with Plane Power alternator and is equipped for both land and water operations with available EDO floats.

The panel is outfitted with modern avionics including a Garmin GTN 650 GPS/NAV/COM, GTX 327 transponder, KX 155 NAV/COM, and KMA 24 audio panel with four-place intercom. Additional instrumentation includes a GI-106 indicator and Hoskins fuel flow/engine monitoring system. The airframe benefits from practical upgrades like a one-piece windshield, 8:50-6 tires, tail pull handles, and an Artex 345 406 ELT. With a basic empty weight of 1,643.4 lbs and recent 500-hour magneto service completed, this Cessna 180 combines classic utility with thoughtful updates.
