Cessna 172N – G-LANE
180hp Glass-Cockpit C172 | IFR-Ready Touring & Training Platform
G-LANE is a seriously upgraded C172N that feels far closer to a modern IFR tourer than a classic trainer.
Powered by a Lycoming O-360 180hp engine and benefiting from an increased MTOW to 2,550 lb, it offers stronger performance, better climb and more useful load – ideal for touring with passengers and bags.
The real magic is up front: a full glass cockpit and top-tier avionics suite that make G-LANE an outstanding platform for advanced flying, IFR practice and serious cross-country work.
Avionics & Panel
• Garmin G500 PFD/MFD with Synthetic Vision – primary flight and moving map in a modern glass layout
• Garmin GTN 750 GPS/NAV/COM – touchscreen IFR navigator with large moving map and flight plan management
• Garmin SL30 NAV/COM – second NAV/COM for robust IFR capability and training
• Garmin GTX 328 Mode S transponder
• King KN64 DME
• King KR87 ADF
• PMA8000BT Bluetooth audio panel – music, phone and clear intercom management
• Avidyne TAS600 Traffic Awareness System (TCAS) – active traffic for enhanced situational awareness
• S-TEC 30 Autopilot with altitude hold – solid, dependable two-axis autopilot for en-route and approach stability
• Garmin Aera 795 panel-mounted GPS – additional moving map and situational awareness
• JPI EDM-730 Engine Data Monitor – precise engine management and real-time monitoring
Why G-LANE Stands Out
• 180hp Lycoming O-360 conversion
• 2550 lb MTOW – more flexibility for people, fuel and bags
• True glass cockpit C172 with GTN750 and G500
• Full IFR-capable avionics and autopilot for serious touring and instrument work
G-LANE is the go-to choice in the fleet when you want a C172 that feels like a modern, well-equipped tourer rather than a basic trainer.
Cessna 172N – G-BOOL
160hp Touring C172 | Modern Avionics, Fresh Engine, Serious Comfort
G-BOOL is a C172N that combines classic Cessna handling with a thoroughly modern panel and a freshly overhauled engine.
With leather seats, upgraded avionics and smart engine monitoring, it’s a refined and capable tourer that feels a long way from a basic club trainer.
Under the cowl is a Lycoming O-320-H2AD driving a McCauley 1C160/DTM7557 propeller, a genuinely fresh engine that inspires confidence in performance and reliability.
Avionics & Panel
G-BOOL is equipped with a well-thought-out panel:
• Garmin GNS 430 COM1 GPS/NAV/COM (updated)
• ICOM IC-A220 COM2
• Garmin GMA 345 Bluetooth audio panel – music and phone integration with clear intercom control
• Garmin GTX 335 Mode S transponder with ADS-B Out and WAAS position source
• Full ILS, VOR, ADF and DME capability
• 2 × AV-30 electronic flight instruments (uAvionix AV-30) – configurable PFD/HSI, replacing traditional vacuum gyros
• JPI EDM-830 engine data monitor – detailed engine monitoring and fuel management
• Garmin Aera 660 panel-mounted GPS, coupled with Garmin GDL 50R for traffic and weather information
• CO alarm for added cabin safety
This combination delivers a modern, reliable capable panel with excellent situational awareness and engine oversight.
Engine & Airframe
• Engine: Lycoming O-320-H2AD
• Propeller: McCauley 1C160/DTM7557
• Status: effectively a fresh engine
The result is smooth running, strong reliability and the efficiency you’d expect from a 160hp four-cylinder Lycoming – ideal for economical touring and regular flying.
Why G-BOOL Stands Out
• Freshly overhauled Lycoming O-320-H2AD
• Leather interior for a more premium feel
• Dual AV-30 electronic instruments and EDM-830 for modern situational and engine awareness
• ADS-B Out plus traffic/weather via Aera 660 + GDL 50R
• Fully equipped with ILS, VOR, ADF, DME for real-world touring
G-BOOL is the perfect choice when you want a comfortable, well-presented C172 with a modern panel and a freshly built engine, ready for proper mission-focused flying.
