1971 Cessna 172L SkyhawkSingle-Engine Piston Aircraft

This 1971 Cessna 172L Skyhawk (N9864G) presents as a well-equipped trainer with recent avionics upgrades and solid maintenance history. The airframe shows 6,128 total hours with a Lycoming O-320-E2D engine that was overhauled in November 2016 and currently has 437 hours since major overhaul. The panel features a Garmin 430WAAS navigator paired with a Garmin 330 ADS-B Out transponder, KTR-225 digital comm radio, and Garmin 245 audio panel with 4-place intercom, making it IFR-capable with certification valid through September 2026.

The aircraft has been hangared throughout its life, evidenced by the glossy white exterior with dark maroon trim and well-preserved gray leather interior. Notable features include an oil pan heater, insulated cowling cover, LED tail beacon, and 38-gallon fuel capacity yielding a useful load of approximately 918 lbs. Maintenance records are complete with no damage history, and the next annual inspection isn't due until November 2025. The McCauley 2-blade aluminum propeller complements the 150 HP engine in this classic Skyhawk configuration.
