1976 Cessna 172M SkyhawkSingle-Engine Piston Aircraft • DIDSBURY , AB CAN

This 1976 Cessna 172M Skyhawk (C-GSSM) presents as a well-maintained trainer with recent upgrades, showing 9,777 total hours on airframe. The aircraft features a 2019 remanufactured O-320-E2D engine (160 HP) with only 206 hours since major overhaul, paired with an overhauled McCauley two-blade propeller repitched to 55 inches in 2019. The airframe benefits from a low-moisture prairie environment with frequent hangaring, and includes notable 2025 installations of McFarlane elevator bushing and flap roller bearing kits.

Recent refurbishments include a fresh paint job, Stene Aviation composite fairings and wingtips, and a 2024 interior refresh...
