EFT C172. Are they too old and beaten?

Hi guys. I was speaking to a guy who was at European Flight Training, Fort Pierce Florida a couple of months back.

He was telling me that the C172 aircraft where come of the oldest and most uncomfortable he has ever seen and piloted.

Here in N.Ireland, I have been flying Brand new C172SP's from Newtownards Airport.

I just need some opinions on the quality of the aircraft etc. If anyone has any info, including previous EFT students please get in touch.

Thanks
Savage.

hi,
i did over 100hrs on EFT's 172s and never had a serious problem with them. the only (regular) trouble was with the avionics.
i became quite fond of 88ep, seeing how much cow sh*t was stuck under the wing was something to look forward to in the morning!!!!
