The 172S is the most recent incarnation of the Skyhawk, a model that Cessna has delivered more than 43,000 examples of in various iterations since its introduction in 1955—making this single-engine piston-driven aircraft one of the world’s most popular. Cessna has kept such high sales figures by continuing to upgrade the Skyhawk’s classic high-wing design with state-of-the-art technology. A Garmin G1000 avionics suite gives owner-operators the utmost control and peace of mind when piloting the plane, which is able to reach a 14,000-foot ceiling.
