Yes a Cessna 177RG 200hp 950lb pay load -300lbs 50US gals Range 750 some have 60gal tanks with 130nts cruise at 8000t 650lbs for passengers best handling of all the Cessnas. Has small wheels so not so good for soft field operation but semi short field or FG with 180hp lower cruise 120kt but still good performer. Good club in the States Cardinal Flyers. They both performer better than the Pipe with the same engines.
