1978 Cessna 172 Hawk XP IISingle-Engine Piston Aircraft • Prescott, AZ, USA

This 1978 Cessna 172 Hawk XP II (N736TC) presents as a well-maintained example with 5,290 total airframe hours, benefiting from its dry Southwest U.S. operating environment. The aircraft features a Lycoming IO-360-K engine producing 195 hp with 1,020 hours since major overhaul (SMOH) and just 3 hours since an IRAN inspection, paired with a freshly overhauled propeller showing only 3 hours since service. The VFR-configured panel includes notable upgrades like a 2024 Garmin GTR205 com radio, Garmin GDL-82 ADS-B Out with WAAS GPS, and a Bendix King KT76A transponder, complemented by original equipment including a Cessna 300A Navomatic autopilot...
