I used to fly a FG Cardinal. It was a wonderful aircraft but slow as a Yugo. The RG Cardinals are pretty sleek and will match the vintage Mooneys’ speed. I found this nice example on Controller. Asking and selling prices often vary however I feel like the C brand commands a higher price than our Mooneys for similar performance. Looking at this fine specimen gets me excited but then I think about the Mooney I could have for the same outlay and for me Mooney wins. Why is it that Mooney’s are such a fantastic value? and since they are, and there are fewer of them, why doesn’t that drive the values up? https://www.controller.com/listings/aircraft/for-sale/184024203/1973-cessna-177rg -
my son 32 yr. old sheriff's deputy/paramedic son has expressed an interest in learning to fly. I will soon have access to a 1968 Cessna 177 Cardinal for free. What is your opinion as to its suitability as a trainer as opposed to a 172. It does have the stabilator slots mod.
