  • Page 3: Aircraft Systems

    Aircraft Systems Engine The C172S is equipped with a Lycoming, 4-cylinder, IO-360-L2A (Fuel injected, opposed, 360 cubic inch displacement) engine rated at 180 horsepower at 2700 RPM. The engine is direct drive (crankshaft connected directly to the propeller), horizontally opposed (pistons oppose each other), piston driven, fuel injected and normally aspirated (no turbo or supercharging).
  • Page 4: Landing Gear

    Landing Gear The C172S is equipped with fixed tricycle type landing gear. The main gear is mounted to tubalar spring struts mounted to the fuselage below the wings. The nose wheel consists of an air oil type strut and is steerable with linkage to the rudder pedals. Brakes he airplane has a single-disc, hydraulically actuated brake on each main landing gear wheel.

    windshield, and associated plumbing. As the airplane approaches a stall, the low pressure on the upper surface of the wings moves forward around the leading edge of the wings. This low pressure creates a differential pressure in the stall warning system which draws air through the warning horn, resulting in an audible warning at 5 to 10 knots above stall in all flight conditions.
  • Page 6: Electrical System

    Electrical System. The airplane is equipped with a 28-volt direct current (DC) electrical system consisting of a belt-driven 60-ampere alternator and a 24- volt main storage battery. Individual system circuit breakers are found on the circuit breaker panel below the pilot's control wheel. All circuit breakers are "pullable"...
  • Page 7: Ignition System

    If the alternator system fails, the MASTER switch may be set to the OFF position to preserve Main Battery capacity for later in the flight. With the MASTER switch OFF and the STBY BATT switch in the ARM position, the standby battery will power the Essential Bus for a limited time.
  • Page 8 Attitude Heading Reference System (AHRS, sensors replace traditional gyros) Magnetometer (supplies heading information to AHRS, located in left wing) Air Data Computer (ADC, compiles info from pitot/static system and OAT) Engine Monitor (compiles engine info and sends it to avionics unit)
 Transponder (ADS-B transponder that is operated on PFD) XM data link (provides weather and radio data to MFD)
