1976 Cessna 177RG

From the seller

Presenting an exceptional 1976 Cessna 177RG Cardinal (C-FBYE), boasting what is likely one of the lowest airframe total times on the market for its vintage. Meticulously maintained and consistently hangar-stored since its 2003 paint refresh, this aircraft offers an outstanding, turn-key foundation for its next owner. This Cardinal RG features a pristine maintenance pedigree, highlighted by excellent 77/80 compressions across all four cylinders during its December 2025 annual. Recent major upgrades include a freshly overhauled 3-blade Hartzell propeller and a brand-new Powerflow exhaust system installed in January 2025. Peace of mind is guaranteed with the crucial spar AD, along with all other applicable ADs, fully complied with in August 2023. Originally a US aircraft, it was imported to Canada in 2003 and has been treated with exceptional care ever since. Currently configured for VFR flight, this airframe is an absolute pleasure to fly as-is, while also serving as the perfect pristine canvas for a modern glass-panel avionics upgrade.
