I don't know much about flying But I thank what the original post said that the
172 dropped down so if that was the case the 172 wouldn't have to be able to
fly at 135 knots at cruise. If desending he could easy fly at 135 knots or
more. even still it would have been a shock to have some one
Bob:
The last one I flew had a 75% power cruise of around 130 mph and would maybe
top out around 140 so perhaps with the 150 HP Lyc 120 kts or so max. I dont
even think the Cardinal with the 150/160 HP Lyc could do 135 knts. I know the
150 HP cardinal could not because I have time in one and
GREAT JOB

Bob,
Depending on the performance of your aircraft, slow or high performance,
there is usually two different flight levels when approaching Oshkosh or Sun n
Fun.
I think the original post implied that the 172 was at the high performance
(higher flight level). My point was that it may not ha
Guys, it's not whether a 172 will do 135 kts, 90 kts or mach 2, it's some

We would agree that it was a scary event
Me and my buddy that i helped build his Glasair had a simmular event happen to
us at Lake Whales airport.we were flying into Lake Whales {Florida} in the
glasair and a friend of ours was giveing a ride to a friend of his in a
grumman we almost
OK GUYS LISTEN ! I MEAN LISTEN TO WHAT I HAVE TO SAY
Kill the discussion on 172's and their speeds. Who gives a crap whether they
can do 90 knots or Mach 1. Forget I ever said anything in my flight report
about the 172. I am alive, I did not have a mid air and we all made it safe.
Now
But wait! What if a KR2 traveling from the north pole to the south pole at
9,999' intercepts an IFR C-172 flying from the south pole to the north
pole at 135 knots and 2500' (yes, he's in violation), and they both meet a
Cardinal on a roadbed in California? Will this cause the KR2s in the bel
