Hello

Hello everyone. Just joined and myself and my son are first time aircraft owners. We purchased this 1965 172F at the end of March 2025. It is in very good condition mechanically and decent interior but dated. So, we are now replacing the seat upholstery, and soon the carpet and panels. It flies great and we love it.

    Hi Richard,

    Great looking aircraft, congratulations! Don't be a stranger! As you make improvements post them here for members to enjoy! Ask questions, get answers.

    Keep the pointy end forward, and the dirty side down.

    Regards,

    Mike
