This 1974 Cessna 172 Skyhawk (N13221) presents a well-maintained example with complete logs and current ownership under an A&P/IA mechanic. The airframe shows 4,300 total hours with a useful load of 890 lbs, featuring practical upgrades like 40-gallon fuel capacity with raised gas caps, wheel pants, right-side opening window, and BAS inertia reel harnesses. The Lycoming O-320-E2D engine has 1,275 hours SMOH (2,000-hour TBO) and is complemented by a two-blade propeller.
The aircraft's avionics suite includes a King KMA 24 audio panel, Garmin GNC 255A nav/com, and a WAAS-enabled GNC 430 IFR GPS with moving map, making it IFR-capable. Additional features include a Mode C transponder, ADS-B out via wingtip beacon, and dual yoke-mounted PTT buttons. The exterior sports a bright white base with a striking metallic green/red/black custom scheme rated 9/10, while the tan/gray interior maintains an 8/10 condition. Notably, the aircraft sustained damage in 1990 from a runway excursion involving a small tree but shows no corrosion or hail history. The annual inspection is current through July 2026.
