The series continues... Grin

I guess you know by now, where these were taken!

Cessna 172M

Cessna 152

Cessna 172M

No ID... seems different from the 172's (position of the lights) and the civil register states that OO-SIG is a Cessna 337... I don't think so Grin

And another Cessna 172M

Next? The Pipers!

That's a nice little airfield. Reminds me of Popham.

I'm afraid these nosewheel Cessnas all look much the same to me but the light arrangement looks similar to this one I took at Shoreham a couple of weeks ago. http://www.simviation.com/yabbuploads/da-IMG_9450sm.jpg
It's registered as a Cessna 182Q Skylane.

I would say "182" right off the bat, because although it's hard to tell the difference between it and the 172 sometimes, a good look at the more arched upper cowl and the vents on either side of the lower cowl give it away. And the proportion of spinner to "nostrils" is different... I'm pretty sure all 182s have a slightly wider spinner because it hides a constant-speed hub. And yes, I think all 182s have landing and taxi lights on either side of the air intake, as shown.

But from the firewall back, the 182 is, almost identical to the 172.
