Do you operate an N model Cessna 172?
Is your Cessna equipped with the Cessna lower cowling cooling lip?
Would you like to carry up to 100lbs more gross weight?
Looking to increase your useful load on your Cessna 172N? We can help with our STC approval for a 100lb gross weight increase. With the Cessna 172P being structurally the same as the N model, it allows owners of Cessna 172N model aircraft to increase the useful load of their aircraft by up to 100 pounds (2,400 pounds max. gross weight for aircraft in Normal Category, 2,100 pounds max. gross weight for aircraft operated in the Utility Category). It includes the required operating limitations placard and flight manual change/supplement. To comply with this STC, the flap extension must be limited to a maximum of 30 degrees and Cessna’s cowling cooling lip as found on the Cessna 172P model and must be installed. Power Flow Systems does not provide the means to limit the flap extension or the cowl cooling lip. When purchasing please include your aircraft serial number.
Note: this Gross Weight Increase is applicable to C172 0-320 N models only. If you have an 0360 conversion you may already have this GWI. Please check your log entries and STC.
