The Cessna 177 Cardinal was an ambitious four-seat general aviation aircraft designed to replace the popular Cessna 172 Skyhawk with modern features including a cantilever wing and all-flying stabilator. First flown in 1967 and introduced in 1968, it was a high-wing single-engine monoplane that seated four occupants with improved visibility and comfort over its predecessor. Spanning over 35 feet with sleek aerodynamic lines, the Cardinal suffered from initial underpowering that hampered its commercial success. Manufactured by Cessna Aircraft Company from 1968 to 1978, approximately 4,295 units were produced across all variants.
