Ash does a walkaround and flight in this gorgeous #Cessna172! An absolutely awesome single engine Cessna. The C172K Hawk XP was Cessna's replacement to the 177 Cardinal and suitably filled the gap between the 172 and the 182.

My father worked for Bill Flint at Flint airmotive at Gillespie airport in the early 70,s and put the Flint tanks on Cessna's and when Bill retired my Dad Bought the company in the middle of the 70's and continued the sell the tanks and install them on theri planes. A lot of aviator actors like George Kennedy got them on their 205,206, and 207s. I worked there too parts cleaning. I was a kid.

I loved flying. One night got to flight a Cessna 184. One time tried the Caravan. ❤❤❤

I owned an XP for several years. It’s a great airplane your video brought back some good memories. Keep up the good work I’m looking forward to your next video.

@CameronPerdue 2 года назад

As an XP owner I think your W&B numbers are for a float plane. And not the wheel version. Mine had 740 usable on floats. And over 900 on wheels (can’t recall the specific #)

@DeadstickAdventures 2 года назад

Thanks for bringing that up. I’ll have another read of the Flight Manual. I wouldn’t be upset if I discovered another bunch of useful load! I’m unsure of the history of the aircraft but would be interested to find out if it was on floats at some point!

@DeadstickAdventures 2 года назад

Awesome! You’d know just how great they are then. Thanks for the comment! :)

@Wpilot673 9 месяцев назад

I have a fair amount of time in a rental XP and was always impressed with the climb and useful load. Still slow though. All that HP has a hard time overcoming a draggy airframe. According to the owner it was a expensive on maintenance too.

@DeadstickAdventures 9 месяцев назад

Yeah I was also disappointed that it wasn’t faster. Still a great plane though

@lawrencebillson6224 2 года назад

Love the videos, keep ‘em coming. A rocket or XP would be pretty sweet to own - probably easy to get someone to maintain it. I do think I’d probably want something a little faster, either the 182 but probably something with retractable gear. I’ve recently started to fall in love with the Comanche.

@DeadstickAdventures 2 года назад

Comanches are a very cool plane albeit getting a little old! Can’t ever go wrong with a 182. Versatile, fast and high wing 👌

@philipkinney8361 2 года назад

Great video. I’ve owned a 1976 Hawk XP II for 3 yrs. It’s been a great 1st plane. Sometimes it would be nice to go faster, but overall it’s a pleasure to fly and economical. The POH useful load (on wheels) is 977lbs. With full tanks (49 gals) allows for 683lbs of people and cargo. As another poster mentioned, you may have been referring to the useful load with floats rather than wheels.

@DeadstickAdventures 2 года назад

Yes I think you’re right there Phil. Interesting stats nonetheless!

@lcprivatepilot1969 Год назад

If I ever decide on a 172, it will have at the very least, a 180-HP power-plant with the addition of a Power-Flow Exhaust system. Thanks for sharing this!

@DeadstickAdventures 11 месяцев назад

The 180hp is a great conversion. Nice plan!

@terryhall4525 2 года назад

@gabimoreno9895 Год назад

My flight club owns a couple of FR172J Reims Rocket. One hour (wet rental) is 10 euros more expensive than one hour on a 172N and 10 cheaper than a 172S with G1000.... By the way, I hate glass cockpits... so guess which one I fly 😎

@DeadstickAdventures Год назад

That’s a pretty easy choice! Rocket all the way! Steam cockpits are the best 👌

@jarvisfamilyhomevideos7879 Год назад

At 10:09 where you mention the max demonstrated crosswind, "max demonstrated" simply means the maximum demonstrated crosswind that the plane safely underwent during flight testing. It could be that a certificated airplane could actually be controllable under greater crosswind conditions, but that those conditions were never present during flight testing. So the fact that the max "demonstrated" on the XP is greater than the regular 172 doesn't necessarily mean that the XP can handle greater crosswinds than the regular 172. It could simply mean that the regular 172 never "demonstrated" a 20-knot crosswind during certification flight testing.

@DeadstickAdventures Год назад

Good point, well made. Thanks!

@Pilotc180 10 месяцев назад

A good flyer, big improvement over the 150 hp 172; but not close to 182 performance

@TooLowGear 2 года назад

What’s are the differences between the Hawk XP I and Hawk XP II?

@DeadstickAdventures 2 года назад

I definitely could be wrong but from the reading I’ve done - it was a change from the K to the KB engine which had a redesigned crankshaft. - Ash

@richard8181 2 года назад

Also the radio equip fit out on XPII

@robinj.9329 5 месяцев назад

The 172 only used 145 h.p. untill they switched to the 150 hp Lycoming O-320 in 1968. Gross was only 2,200 pounds at the start. Which is still a good, all around flying weight. At high density altitudes or high temperatures your best just not flying that day!!!

@DeadstickAdventures 5 месяцев назад

Agreed! 145hp just isn’t enough!

@bernardanderson3758 2 года назад

I’ve flown the 172 XP

@DeadstickAdventures 2 года назад

@victoreduardourquhartvilla6976 6 месяцев назад

172 con 180 hp corresponde a los últimos modelos del Skyhawk. A los que certifican como C-175, pueden adaptar les motores de hasta 235 hp( 6 cilindros O-435) sin reductora.

@DeadstickAdventures 6 месяцев назад

¡muy interesante!

@victoreduardourquhartvilla6976 2 месяца назад

El hawk XP no es un 172, corresponde por igual al cutlass, cutlass RG, al Reíms (210 hp) fabricado en Francia ( motor Rolls Royce bajo licencia) y a la versión militar . Todos estos son C-175, en esencia un Skylark modificados y muy semejantes al 172. El 172 Skyhawk es único porque certifica como C-172 propiamente. Los demás usurpando el nombre, no pertenecen al modelo porque el fuselaje no es el mismo. Las alas y el empenaje hacen que parezcan un 172. Pero NO. No son 172 de manera alguna.

@rydstallion75 10 месяцев назад

Why would they need a time limit on running the engine above 2600 rpm? I don't understand that. Aviation motors are supposed to be built good, what kind of engine can't run at 2800 rpm?

@DeadstickAdventures 9 месяцев назад

For whatever reason, I guess continental decided to impose this limit on their engines. Interesting considering some of these engines rev a lot higher when modified.

@user-pb7ig4sv2l Месяц назад

It’s about heat dissipation under all conditions, whatever power you get out, it makes about 3x the heat

@victoreduardourquhartvilla6976 6 месяцев назад

El 172 XP es un C-175. No tiene nada que ver con un Skyhawk. Al igual que los Reíms Cutlass RG, Mescalero, certifican como C-175. El Skyhawk

Please, please turn off the music. Why do people think they need music when they are delivering a lecture? Remember, we poor Yanks also have to decode Australian into English. Give us a break.

@richard8181 2 года назад

I would like to focus on the main content also, a lot of new youtubers make this mistake.

@DeadstickAdventures 2 года назад

Haha that decode is harder than NOTAM to English! Thanks for the suggestion Jim. I’ve spoken to our editor who has toned down the music in future vids for you. ^MP
