Model 177 Specifications
The Cessna 177 is equipped with a Lycoming O-320-E2D engine, producing 150 hp at 2700 rpm. It has a maximum weight of 2350 lbs in the normal category and 2200 lbs in the utility category. The aircraft features a fuel capacity of 49 gallons, with 48 gallons usable, and an oil capacity of 8 quarts.
Performance Limits
The Cessna 177 has several airspeed limits: a never exceed speed of 185 mph (160 knots), maximum structural cruising speed of 145 mph (125 knots), and maneuvering speed of 113 mph (98 knots). Flaps can be extended at speeds up to 105 mph (91 knots).
Weight and Balance
The C.G. range for the normal category is from +101.0 to +114.5 inches at 2000 lbs or less, and from +105.5 to +114.5 inches at 2350 lbs. The utility category has a C.G. range from +101.0 to +109.9 inches at 2000 lbs or less.
Control Surface Movements
Control surface movements include wing flaps down to 30° ± 2°, ailerons up to 20° ± 2° and down to 15° ± 2°, and stabilator movements of up to 20° ± 1° up and down to 5° ± 1°.
Fuel and Oil Requirements
The Cessna 177 requires a minimum fuel grade of 80/87 aviation gasoline. The oil capacity is 8 quarts, with 2 quarts being unusable.
Safety notes
- Use of alcohol-based fuels is prohibited due to performance degradation and potential damage.
- Ensure compliance with operating limitations as stated in placards and manuals.
