The Cessna 172 Skyhawk is a four-seat, single-engine, high-wing fixed-wing aircraft. First flown in 1955 and still in production, more Cessna 172s have been built than any other aircraft. The 172P, or Skyhawk P, was introduced in 1984. Our Cessna 172P long range tank version otherwise known as the Dreamliner, G-NWFC was originally purchased in Michigan from a university along with it’s stable mate G NWFG. In August 2012 we commissioned Mick Alan and Sons to undertake a bare metal respray and match the paint scheme of the aircraft as close as he could to the Boeing Dreamliner paint scheme. The end result Was North Weald Flying Group’s own mini Dreamliner.
