1979 CESSNA 172RG CUTLASS
Description
Nice flying Cessna 172RG Cutlass with retractable gear and constant-speed prop. This is a great step-up airplane for someone looking to build complex time, complete commercial training, or own an economical cross-country aircraft with Cessna handling and better cruise performance than a fixed-gear 172.
Aircraft is actively flown and has a fresh annual inspection completed September 2025. Logs show airframe total time of approximately 9,004.8 hours at annual, tach 1,147.1, and engine time since major overhaul of approximately 1,364.8 hours at annual. Powered by a Lycoming O-360-F1A6 engine with a McCauley constant-speed propeller.
During the annual inspection, the landing gear system received significant attention, including actuator work, seals, bearings, brake service, tire and tube replacement, hydraulic servicing, and successful gear retraction testing. Engine oil and filter were changed, cylinder compressions were 74/74/76/76, spark plugs were serviced, the air filter was replaced, and magnetos were timed to 25°.
