172 SKYHAWK

This 1963 Cessna 172 Skyhawk (P172D) presents as a well-maintained example with 2,650 total airframe hours and a Lycoming O-360 engine showing 1,675 hours since its Avcon conversion. The aircraft has a current annual through May 2026 and IFR certification valid until December 2026, indicating recent maintenance compliance. Notable upgrades include a constant-speed McCauley propeller, Reiff engine heater, Madras droop wing tips, flap gap seals, and HID landing/taxi lights with pulse light control for enhanced visibility. The panel features modern avionics with a Garmin 430W, King ADF, Bendix King KT78 transponder with ADS-B out, and an Alpha Systems AOA indicator, complemented by an Insight G2 engine monitor for detailed powerplant data.

The aircraft shows careful ownership with a new Concorde AGM battery installed 1.5 years ago, replaced headliner, and BAS inertial reel shoulder harnesses for safety. Additional equipment includes a Precise Flight oxygen system, Northern Companion engine heater, and Lindbergh electric tug among the included extras. The seller notes excellent interior and exterior condition with consistent hangaring at KGXY (Greeley, CO). Performance enhancements like the Avcon conversion and constant-speed prop combine with useful load capacity typical of the model, making this a versatile VFR/IFR-capable platform. The listing includes multiple accessories such as headsets, tow bars, and protective covers.
