Please make sure to watch the video of this plane. Complete details of this Cardinal and the most detailed review video of Cessna 177B model. Low cost delivery to your airport after purchase & fully sanitized for our customers' safety and convenience. I think this is a rare opportunity if you’d like to own a very special 1975 Cessna 177B Cardinal. Low airframe and engine hours, over 32 upgrades & improvements. These make it one of the best 177B at the best value. The upgrades & improvements alone would cost over $80,000 and months of time. (standard 177B with low hours sell around $75-$80,000. Add the cost of upgrades; you're looking at $150-$160,000. Our asking price of $108,000 is a great value.) Cessna Cardinal fixed gear planes are hard to find, owners love them & rarely sell them. Cardinal was my first plane. We’ve had many planes since, but the Cardinal? Wow, what a great airplane to own and fly. Space, ease of flying, reliability, unbelievable open views, useful load, range, short takeoff and landing... no other plane has all that together. Low fuel cost and low insurance. Good speed for a fixed gear 180HP airplane. Exterior is in great condition. You can be proud to take friends and family in this plane. No hail or corrosion, beautiful 2 tone paint. A few sections have minor chips but overall great condition. Avionics panel is a pilot's dream for a plane like this. Entire panel has been updated. Glass panel with Aspen 1000 Pro PFD. So many details, even winds aloft. Connected to Garmin 530 WAAS. Top of the line Garmin GTX 345 transponder (over $7000 to install). ADS-B in and out. Bluetooth - get free traffic and weather to Foreflight or other app. 4 place audio Garmin 347 - private phone calls, music input and automatic ATC record and playback, really useful features. I like they kept the round gauges. Some are updated like attitude indicator & CDI. Great IFR platform, great instrument trainer & transition to glass panel. You have a complete backup system. EDM 830 advanced engine monitor gives peace of mind flying. Manage the engine & save thousands of $ fuel. A ton of info, all 4 CHT and EGT, fuel flow, horsepower, MAP, RPM, and so much more. Low hour engine and propeller; 660 hours since overhaul with great compression, 79,76,76,76 (even though TBO 2000 hours, these motors can usually go 3000 or more) Notable increase in performance with the Powerflow exhaust: flies faster, climbs better, higher ceilings. Engine heater in the plane helps to avoid cold starts. All logs since new, hangared in the Midwest. I’d have to write a chapter to explain all the features, so I'm going to stop, but watch the video, it has everything. Damage reported 18 years ago. All work done in detail and properly logged. It was a long time ago with no signs still showing. Looks gorgeous, clean engine, starts right up, flies great. I flew 3 hours just last week and landed in 37 knots gusting winds on a short runway. Any other plane I'd be worried; if you fly a 177B Cardinal it's relaxing & will take care of you. With the great upgrades in this plane, it's like flying a modern airplane for half of the cost. 6 things we can do for you... 1. Transport anywhere in USA for low cost 2.
