Cessna 172 Skyhawk

858 Robertobean  8.8 years ago

The Cessna 172 Skyhawk is a civil utility aircraft. It has the most models made has been in production since 1956. In my opinion, it's the most successful aircraft ever built. The Cessna 172 is by far my favorite plane, and I hope It's the first plane I fly when I get my license. (I get to go to flight school instead of drivers ed. Woo-Hoo!)
