Cessna 172 Measurements

[No Longer Active]

Hi, I have been doing some research on Cessna 172 cockpit measurements and I have come up with a list of approximate measurements, these are only a guide and I am not responsible for inaccurate data. But it all helps.



CABIN / FLOOR

HEIGHT FROM FLOOR TO ROOF (INSIDE ROOF) = 124 - 125CM
FROM RIGHT DOOR TO RIGHT OF CENTER CONSOLE DISTANCE = 37CM
DISTANCE FROM PADDED LEFT DOOR TO PADDED RIGHT DOOR (AT HINGE) = 96CM
WIDTH OF FLOOR AT START OF CENTER CONSOLE = 78CM

(BECAUSE DOORS ARE PADDED THE DISTANCE BETWEEN DOORS IS GOING TO BE LESS THAN THE WIDTH OF THE MIP, JUST TO SAVE CONFUSION!)


SEATS

WIDTH FROM LEFT OF PILOTS SEAT TO RIGHT OF CO-PILOTS SEAT = 96CM
DISTANCE FROM FRONT EDGE OF SEAT TO MIP = 57 - 58CM


DOORS

DOOR HEIGHT = 105cm
DOOR WIDTH = 89cm


GLARESHIELD

WIDTH OF GLARESHIELD = 30CM (FROM FRONT OF MIP TO WINDOW)
LENGTH OF GLARESHIELD = 105CM


MIP

MIP HEIGHT INCLUDING GLARESHIELD = 46 - 47CM
MIP WIDTH INCLUDING GLARESHIELD = 105CM
HEIGHT FROM FLOOR TO BOTTOM OF MIP = 48CM
HEIGHT FROM FLOOR TO TOP OF MIP INCLUDING GLARESHIELD = 93CM


CENTER CONSOLE

CONSOLE HEIGHT = 47CM
CONSOLE WIDTH = 16CM

FUEL SELECTOR PANEL (FLOOR PART) = 12CM
(MEASURING FROM CENTER CONSOLE TOWARDS YOU)


RUDDER PEDALS

FROM FLOOR TO TOP OF RUDDER PEDAL = 27.5CM
