G-AZTS Cessna 172 Skyhawk Cessna intended the Skyhawk to be the family aeroplane and therefore a natural purchase for the freshly qualified pilot who has trained on the popular C150. The roomy cabin space, large baggage hold and four seats make it superior in its class both as a tourer and advanced trainer. G-AZTS is fully IFR capable for use in UK controlled airspace and is regularly used for Commercial Pilot training. Cessna were the first of the aircraft manufacturers to offer the family an aeroplane in much the same way as Mr. Ford promoted his cars.
