WEIGHT & BALANCE / MODEL 172N
EQUIPMENT LIST
Take the basic empty weight and moment from appropriate weight and
balance records carried in your airplane, and enter them in the column
titled YOUR AIRPLANE on the Sample Loading Problem.
NOTE
Use the Loading Graph to determine the moment/ 1000 for each
additional item to be carried; then list these on the loading problem.
NOTE
Total the weights and moments/ 1000 and plot these values on the
Center of Gravity Moment Envelope to determine whether the point falls
within the envelope, and if the loading is acceptable.

EQUIPMENT LIST
EQUIPMENT LIST
The following equipment list is a comprehensive list of all Cessna equipment
available for this airplane. A separate equipment list of items installed in your
specific airplane is provided in your aircraft file. The following list and the specific
list for your airplane have a similar order of listing.
An item number gives the identification number for the item. Each number is
prefixed with a letter which identifies the descriptive grouping (exam-
ple: A. Powerplant & Accessories) under which it is listed. Suffix letters
identify the equipment as a required item, a standard item or an optional
item. Suffix letters are as follows:
-R - required items of equipment for FAA certification
-S = standard equipment items
-0= optional equipment items replacing required or standard
items
-A = optional equipment items which are in addition to
required or standard items
A reference drawing column provides the drawing number for the item.
NOTE
Columns showing weight (inpounds) and arm (in inches) provide the weight
and center of gravity location for the equipment.
NOTE
NOTE
Asterisks (*) after the item weight and arm indicate complete
assembly installations. Some major components of the assem-
bly are listed on the lines immediately following. The summa-
tion of these major components does not necessarily equal the
complete assembly installation.

MODEL 172N AIRPLANE & SYSTEMS DESCRIPTIONS
INTR ODUCTION
This section provides description and operation of the airplane and its
systems. Some equipment described herein is optional and may not be
installed in the airplane. Refer to Section 9, Supplements, for details of
other optional systems and equipment.
AIR FRAME
The airplane is an all-metal, four-place, high-wing, single-engine airplane
equipped with tricycle landing gear, and is designed for general utility
purposes.
The externally braced wings, containing the fuel tanks, are construct-
ed of a front and rear spar with formed sheet metal ribs, doublers, and
stringers. The entire structure is covered with aluminum skin. The front
spars are equipped with wing-to-fuselage and wing-to-strut attach
fittings. The aft spars are equipped with wing-to-f uselage attach fittings,
and are partial-span spars. Conventional hinged ailerons and single-slot
type flaps are attached to the trailing edge of the wings. The ailerons are
constructed of a forward spar containing a balance weight, formed sheet
metal ribs and "V" type corrugated aluminum skin joined together at the
trailing edge. The flaps are constructed basically the same as the ailerons,
with the exception of the balance weights and the addition of a formed sheet
metal leading edge section.

The horizontal stabilizer is constructed of a forward and aft spar, ribs and
stiffeners, center, left, and right wrap-around skin panels, and formed
leading edge skins. The horizontal stabilizer also contains the elevator
trim tab actuator. Construction of the elevator consists of formed leading
edge skins, a forward spar, aft channel, ribs, torque tube and bellcrank, left
upper and lower "V" type corrugated skins, and right upper and lower "V"
type corrugated skins incorporating a trailing edge cut-out for the trim
tab. The elevator trim tab consists of a spar, rib, and upper and lower "V"
type corrugated skins. The leading edge of both left and right elevator tips
incorporate extensions which contain balance weights.
Extensions are available for the rudder I brake pedals. They consist of a
rudder pedal face, two spacers and two spring clips. To install an exten-
sion, place the clip on the bottom of the extension under the bottom of the
rudder pedal and snap the top clip over the top of the rudder pedal. Check
that the extension is firmly in place. To remove the extensions, reverse the
above procedures.
TR IM SYSTEM
A manually-operated elevator trim system is provided; a rudder trim
system may also be installed (see figure 7-1). Elevator trimming is
accomplished through the elevator trim tab by utilizing the vertically
mounted trim control wheel. Forward rotation of the trim wheel will trim
nose-down; conversely, aft rotation will trim nose-up. Rudder trimming is
accomplished through a bungee connected to the rudder control system
and a trim lever, mounted on the control pedestal. Rudder trimming is
accomplished by lifting the trim lever up to clear a detent, then moving it
either left or right to the desired trim position. Moving the trim lever to the
right will trim the airplane nose-right; conversely, moving the lever to the
left will trim the airplane nose-left.

MODEL 172N AIRPLANE & SYSTEMS DESCRIPTIONS
altimeter are located to the left and right of the gyros, respectively. The
remainder of the flight instruments are located around the basic "T".
Engine instruments and fuel quantity indicators are near the left edge of
the panel. Avionics equipment is stacked approximately on the centerline
of the panel, with the right side of the panel containing space for additional
instruments and avionics equipment. A subpanel under the primary
instrument panel contains the primer, master and ignition switches,
avionics power switch, circuit breakers, and electrical switches on the left
side, with the engine controls, light intensity controls, and alternate static
air control in the center, over the control pedestal. The right side of the
subpanel contains the wing flap switch lever and position indicator, cabin
heat and vent controls, cigar lighter, and map compartment. A pedestal,
installed below the subpanel, contains the elevator trim control wheel and
position indicator, and provides a bracket for the microphone. A rudder
trim control lever may be installed below the trim wheel and microphone
bracket, and the fuel selector valve handle is located at the base of the
pedestal. A parking brake handle is mounted below the subpanel in front of
the pilot.
GR OUND CONTR OL
Effective ground control while taxiing is accomplished through nose
wheel steering by using the rudder pedals; left rudder pedal to steer left and
right rudder pedal to steer right. When a rudder pedal is depressed, a
spring-loaded steering bungee (which is connected to the nose gear and to
the rudder bars) will turn the nose wheel through an arc of approximately
10° each side of center. By applying either left or right brake, the degree of
turn may be increased up to 30° each side of center.
