Cessna 172TD: Skyhawk With a Bang

Cessna 172TD diesel-powered Skyhawk Robert Goyer

For a basic four-seat airplane, the standard Garmin G1000 package in the TD is incredibly impressive. The panel features a pair of large flat-panel displays, a PFD and an MFD, a digital two-axis autopilot with advanced capabilities and several standard safety utilities.
Looking for differences between the TD and the Lycoming-powered Skyhawks? Apart from the three-blade MT prop, there aren't many outward giveaways.
