Cardinal 177A 1968 advice
Hello there,
I am considering the purchase of a Cardinal 177A with low frame and engine times, nice gps and slaved HSI. It has had 2 accidents, one in 2003 requiring major work to everything in front of and including the firewall. I have flown the plane and it feels heavier on the landings with more stick pressure required than in the 172`s I have flown but otherwise OK. I have heard that this early model Cardinal has tail stall issues and that one should not fill her up to the max permitted gross weight on warm days. I would be flying alone 95% of the time and in Canada where we only have cold days. Any thoughts by owners on this plane? Tien, CP |
