Cessna 172C Skyhawk
The classic swept-tail fast-back 172C — a true vintage trainer with character.
A vintage classic with a roomy cockpit.
This is the classic fast-back, swept-tail Cessna 172C — a beautiful airplane and a true classic. N1330Y has fresh paint, a matching vintage interior, and one of the roomiest cockpits in our fleet. Countless pilots have started their careers in a 172, and ours is no exception.
- New paint scheme with a classic interior.
- Cooler in the summer Texas sun and noticeably roomier than the Warriors.
- Continental 6-cylinder 145 HP engine — runs smooth as silk.
Built for the basics.
The 172 is the most-trained aircraft in aviation history for a reason. Forgiving in the pattern, stable in cruise, and predictable in stalls — it's hard to find a better classroom for fundamental stick-and-rudder skills.
Simple avionics. Less to distract you.
N1330Y's panel is intentionally simple — perfect for first-time VFR students. Without modern MFD clutter, you'll spend your early hours looking outside, where new pilots should be looking.
- Dual COM radios.
- KNS-80 nav system with audio panel.
- Panel-mounted Garmin 696 GPS for easy VFR navigation.
- Ideal panel for learning by reference, not automation.
