1965 Cessna 172F SkyhawkSingle-Engine Piston Aircraft • San Jose, CA, USA

This 1965 Cessna 172F Skyhawk, registration N5387R, presents a distinctive opportunity with its bold red and white accents, described by the seller as one of the sharpest-looking examples of the model available. The airframe has accumulated 3800 total hours, with the Continental O-300D 145 HP engine and propeller both at 2100 hours since major overhaul (SMOH). As the first year to feature electric flaps, this 172F retains the honest flying qualities that made the line legendary.

The avionics package includes a PMA 6000B audio panel, an Apollo GPS/COM, a Narco MK 12D Nav/Com, and a Narco AT150 transponder. Notable airframe modifications...
