The Cessna 175 is a light four-seat, single-engine, fixed wing aircraft produced by Cessna between 1958 and 1962. A deluxe model known as the Skylark was introduced in 1959 for the 1960 model year. The aircraft is very similar to the popular Cessna 172, but has higher gross weight and used a more powerful version of its engine with a geared reduction drive, achieving higher performance. The Cessna 175 sat between the Cessna 172 and the larger Cessna 182 in the product line at its debut.
