The Guillow's Cessna Skyhawk 172 (Kit Number: 802) is a premium, super-detailed 1/12 scale balsa wood model airplane kit of the world's mpst produced single-engine civilian aircraft. Unlike the smaller 24-inch Cessna 150 kit, the Skyhawk 172 is a massive step up in size and detail, featuring a generous 36-inch (914 mm) wingspan, making it an impressive display piece and a highly functional flyer.
Key Specifications & Design
- Scale & Dimensions: 1/12 exact scale with a 36-inch (91.4 cm) wingspan.

- Premium Extras: It features a unique one-piece vacuum-formed plastic canopy, molded plastic cowl, scale landing gear wheels, struts, a scale propeller, and full-color water-slide decals
