1976 Cessna Cardinal 177RG

The Cessna Cardinal 177RG is the Club's complex airplane. It has 4 seats, retractable gear, constant speed propeller, and a full instrument panel. It also has a portable GPS receiver on the yoke should the pilot wish to use it. The Cardinal is available to members for simple flights, but is generally preferred for long-distance and/or multi-day trips.
