Cessna 172N, 172P, 172R Skyhawk
These are the 160 hp Skyhawks: the 172N with a Lycoming O-320-H2AD, the 172P with an O-320-D2J and the fuel-injected 172R with an IO-360-L2A that is rated at 160 hp. Maximum weight is 2,300 pounds on the 172N, 2,400 on the 172P and 2,450 on the 172R, and usable fuel is 40 gallons, then 53 on the 172R, so the weight and fuel here are those of the 172N. Its size, from the 172N and 172P handbooks, is the same for both. Speed, range and ceiling are left blank, because the 172N and 172P handbooks give different figures.
