Went up for a lesson @ KTYS

Took a 1960 Cessna 172B up for a nice Sunday spin around Alcoa, TN.

Sat in a hangar most of it’s life, runs like a new aircraft. Had great fun in it!

Looks like it got upgraded on the inside. My airports trainers don’t have any screens.

As far as I’m aware, the only internal upgrade was the added Garmin 530W. :)

So you can do IFR training? All of our Cherokees have no navigation system besides the basics of a compass.

Technically, yes. But they have an SR22 that is used for IFR training.

Pretty cool, my training plane is a C172R from the year 2000 and has a considerably different interior. Yours has better avionics though lol, I’m stuck with a G430…

Don’t hate on the G430 😂 It’s a good GPS to have

Better than nothing… maybe My greatest fear is that it will catch on fire cause mid-flight it gets almost burning hot…
