The T-45 Goshawk is a highly modified version of the BAE Hawk land-based training jet aircraft. Manufactured by McDonnell Douglas (now Boeing) and British Aerospace (now BAE Systems), the T-45 is used by the United States Navy as an aircraft carrier-capable trainer.
The T-45's A and C models are currently in operational use. The T-45A, which became operational in 1991, contains an analog cockpit design while the newer T-45C, which was first delivered in December 1997, features a new digital "glass cockpit" design. All T-45A aircraft will eventually be converted to a T-45C configuration under the T-45 Required Avionics Modernization Program (T-45 RAMP).
T-45A
Two-seat basic and advanced jet trainer for the US Navy.
T-45B
Proposed land-based version for the US Navy, which would have been basically a conventional Hawk with a USN cockpit and no carrier capability. The USN had wanted the T-45B to get an earlier training capability, but abandoned the idea in 1984 in favor of less-costly updates to the TA-4 and T-2.
T-45C
Improved T-45A with glass cockpit, inertial navigation, and other improvements. Existing T-45As are being upgraded to the T-45C standard.

LONGWILL AIR CRAFT
Serial Number 07-06-13
MFR Year 2007
The CTSW is reported to be somewhat more challenging to fly than other LSA, owing to the higher wing loading and low drag; the low drag increases top speed, but requires additional planning in the descent. The control forces are light and, like most LSA, rudder coordination is necessary, owing to the close coupling of the tailplane. Flight Design increased the size of the tailplane and control surfaces for the 2006 model year, giving improved directional control at lower speeds and reducing the amount of rudder necessary for coordinated turns.

172N
The Skyhawk N, or Skyhawk/100 as Cessna termed it, was introduced for the 1977 model year. The "100" designation indicated that it was powered by a Lycoming O-320-H2AD, 160 horsepower (119 kW) engine designed to run on 100 octane fuel, whereas all previous engines used 80/87 fuel. Unfortunately, this engine proved troublesome and it was replaced by the similarly rated O-320-D2J to create the 1981 172P.
The 1977 "N" model 172 also introduced rudder trim as an option and standard "pre-selectable" flaps. The price was USD$22,300, with the Skyhawk/100 II selling for USD$29,950.
The 1978 model brought a 28-volt electrical system to replace the previous 14-volt system. Air conditioning was an option.
The 1979 model "N" increased the flap extension speed for the first 10 degrees to 115 knots (213 km/h). Optional fuel cells increased the optional fuel to 66 US gallons (250 l).[5]
The "N" remained in production until 1980 when the 172P or Skyhawk P was introduced
