Everytime I see a Cardinal sitting somewhere, I always wonder why this plane didn't had the success of the 172.
When the Cardinal came out, if you would've told me that the 172 would end up overselling it by 10/1 + ...I would've told you to get checked.
Better looking, more spacious, a little faster, same reliability, better visibility, better accessibility to the cockpit, good performance etc...
Maybe the fact that they were underpowered when they came out played a major role.... but they resolved that issue long ago.
What do you guys think?
