Limited Edition Sporty's Skyhawk Die-Cast Model Available

Model Fashioned After Sporty's Flightline Skyhawk

Sporty's die-cast Skyhawk model is a reminder for many pilots of their student pilot days. For others, the Skyhawk is simply a well-loved aircraft model.

First flown in 1955, and still in production today, more Skyhawks have been built than any other aircraft. This 1:72 scale die-cast replica features detailed printed graphics, realistic landing gear, see-through cockpit, and a rotating propeller.

An included display stand lets you customize the flight configuration. Officially licensed by Cessna, this model measures four inches long with a six-inch wingspan.

"You'd be hard-pressed to find a pilot who hasn't flown a 172," says Sporty's Vice President John Zimmerman. "This model is a fantastic memento from many pilots' training experience."

Sporty's Cessna 172 Skyhawk Die-Cast Model [5445W] is available for $49.95
