1977 Cessna 172 Hawk XP II
This 1977 Cessna 172 Hawk XP II is an exceptionally low-time aircraft that has been completely refreshed and upgraded, making it a true standout. With only 1,736 total hours on the airframe and just 25 hours SMOH on its Continental IO-360-KB 195 HP engine (built by Lycon Rebuilding Co.), this aircraft is truly turn-key and ready to fly. The McCauley propeller also has 25 hours SMOH, and the plane boasts a fresh annual completed in August 2025, with 91.411/413 completed in June 2024. Useful load is 892 lbs, and the aircraft has always been hangared with no damage history.
The avionics suite is top-of-the-line, including dual Garmin GI-275 HSI and artificial horizon with SVT, Garmin GI-275 engine monitor, GAMI injectors, Garmin GFC 500 autopilot with electric trim, Garmin GNC 530WAAS, Garmin GTX 345 transponder, Bendix King 165A, and GSB 15 USB A/C. With CIES fuel tank senders coupled to the GI-275, fuel readings are precise and reliable.
Inside, the aircraft has been modernized with new plastics, headliner, BAS shoulder harnesses, Rosen sun visors, and leather-wrapped pilot/copilot yokes. The glareshield is covered in black leather, and instrument lighting has been upgraded with UMA night lights. The seats and carpet remain original in excellent condition, rated 9/10, with signature-sewn headrests adding a refined touch.
The exterior retains its original paint, rated 8/10, with new green-tint bubble side windows, rear windows, back window, and solar grey windshield. Lighting has been fully modernized with Aero LED nav/strobe lights, Aveo Red Baron beacon, and Aero LED landing/taxi lights.
This Cessna 172 XP is not just another 172 — it’s a gem with thoughtful upgrades throughout, offering a full IFR panel with Garmin autopilot, excellent logbook records, and an aircraft that has been cared for meticulously.
