The Cessna 175 Skylark was a 172 with a geared engine promising more power. The gearbox demanded respect owners didn't always give it, and the model became aviation's lesson in reading the manual.

Fun fact

The Skylark's geared GO-300 engine spins its propeller slower than the engine itself — rare in light aircraft.
