  Description

Please watch the full video. It has all the information plus you can see the startup and flight. (If you need a lower price we can sell the plane without the Garmin 650 for $10,000 less or $79,000) This plane has a Garmin GTN650 touchscreen GPS/NAV/COMM and Stec 50 autopilot (2 axis with altitude hold). Long range tanks and nice interior. All logs since new. No accident history. ADS-B out. We bought this plane from a local dealer because it is very hard to find 182s with advanced avionics below $100K. We did maintenance items that needed attention including a new muffler, fuel strainer, hoses, belt and a number of other items. I had a few flights in the plane, it starts up and flies nicely. You can see it flying in the video. There is one item left on our list we didn’t get a chance to finish. The windshield has chips and scratches on the right side. Pilot side is clear. Even though it's not a very expensive item, time was the problem for us because we have a shortage of hangers for the winter. So this plane has to sell. You have the opportunity to buy it for a low price. This plane would be ideal for someone wanting to have a 182 with the latest avionics at a lower price point but not for someone looking to buy a perfect 182. Garmin GTN650 and Stec 50 Autopilot alone would cost over $37,000 to install. Even though there is nothing really noticeable about the paint I would say it is in average condition due to its age. Some minor chips. Clean airframe, no damages, hail or dents in the plane. Engine starts right up. Runs fine. No oil leaks. Fresh oil change and filter had no metal. (You can see in the video how nicely the engine starts, runs and that it makes full power at takeoff.) With extended range 84 gal tanks and a useful load of 1170 lbs it can carry 4 people long range. Also, the 182N model has a higher service ceiling of 17,700ft so you can fly over any mountain. I didn't have any long cross country experience in the plane since we bought it locally. I did have about 4-5 flights each a few hours long. It flies like any other 182. Great climb performance with solid and predictable handling. Stable in cruise. We like to describe our planes as best we can so you don't have surprises. It is not a premium 182. It is a decent plane with expensive, great avionics for the price of a 172. If you don't need the GTN650 we can sell for $79,000. Please watch the full video. All logs are available online for you to review. Thank you for your interest 6 things we do: 1. Transport anywhere in USA for low cost 2. Arrange prebuy with local mechanic or accommodate yours 3. Arrange to look at it on weekends also - if you schedule ahead 4. Give free 5 hour type training with CFI if you need 5. Help you to find financing & insurance 6. Clean and sanitize before delivery

The video play icon   I want to trade my aircraft with this 1971 CESSNA 182N

I will never be able to express my total gratitude and appreciation to Megan for her extremely professional, capable, friendly, honest, cleaver, resourceful, and experienced expertise! She not only helped me navigate the risky and sometimes stressful path to aircraft ownership, but spent numerous hours educating and helping me make the right decision in upgrades and other significant factors in the aircraft purchase. I am very impressed and totally trust Megan and Aerolife Aviation to satisfy all my future trade in and aircraft purchases. In fact, I will only deal with Aerolife Aviation and Megan from now on! A thousand thank you’s Megan! You made this happen!

- Patrick S.

Aerolife is a great company to work with. They are very accommodating and provide great service that makes the buying experience both smooth and pleasurable.

- Mitch

Aerolife Aviation made the purchase of our 182 P an easy and stress free transaction. Megan was extremely helpful in answering all of the MANY questions we had before, during and after the purchase process. Aerolife was very professional and honest regarding the aircraft. Megan was easy to work with. She handled all the purchase details and even arranged delivery of our airplane. We highly recommend Aerolife.

- Lynn and Glen

Very easy to work with Aerolife and very accommodating, and knowledgeable. In a fast pace aggressive market for these planes they simplify buying process using DocuSign and knowing plenty of folks in industry to assist in the process if required.

- Travis Wisniewski

I have been watching Megan do YouTube videos on aircraft for sale. She does such thorough reviews on the planes the previous owner could usually learn something about their old plane. You can imagine my pleasure when I saw a video about a 182 that I was actively interested in buying. When I got to see the plane in person it was exactly as described. Then AeroLife Aviation helped me with the training I needed and arranged for some routine maintenance I requested. Everything was above and beyond my high expectations. Thank you Megan and AeroLife Aviation

- Raymond B.

AeroLife Aviation were very forthright and most accommodating to me in the purchase process. The entire process was smooth and efficient.

- Michael S.

Megan was very thorough and professional. We thought the process went very smooth. Enjoyed working through the process. Many Thanks

- Bob & John

Aerolife Aviation was great to deal with. Megan handled the buying process well from providing the paperwork, to getting the plane delivered to a mechanic for inspection, and arranging the plane to be delivered to Alabama. I think the plane looks great and I am very happy with the purchase.

- Randy S.

Great buying experience with Megan. Plane was exactly as described and we could not be more pleased with our purchase.

- Brad Rentz

This is the third aircraft I have purchased in my lifetime so I can say from experience this was my best buying experience by far. I have complete confidence in Aerolifes business model of how Aerolife will acquire an aircraft then thoroughly and professionally inspect the airplane then fix or replace what ever needs done if any to prepare that aircraft to sell. No smoke and mirrors, they are very upfront and forward in regards to any imperfections with your new plane. I recently purchased a beautiful Cessna 182Q and couldn’t be happier with my plane and how Megan and her team helped guide me though the transfer of my last plane and purchase of my new 182Q. I really enjoyed getting to meet Megan and all the super friendly folks up in Fergus Falls MN when I went up to fly my new plane for the first time. Overall excellent experience.
