(Please watch the full video of the plane. It has all details including a flight so you can see how everything works.) It’s becoming increasingly difficult to find a good Cessna 182. Especially a low hour airplane like this with only 159 engine hours since overhaul. Only 3060 hours airframe. Midwest airplane. No corrosion. Hangered. Well maintained. All logs since new. No damage history. We flew a 700 mile cross country and it flies very well. Current annual and IFR certification. Plane is in original condition with important upgrades. Original paint is decent. A few chips as you can expect with the age. Original interior. Very clean. No damages. Clean, newer carpet. If you like we can ship a complete seat upholstery kit of leather or fabric, your color choice for about $1500. Glasses are overall in good condition. Cessna 182 is a great, versatile plane. Great climb performance. In the video, our initial climb was around 1500 ft per minute. Even at gross weight it can climb close to 1000 ft/mn. Climb rate is important to operate from short fields, climb above terrain and especially climb over adverse weather systems. This 182 model has one of the highest service ceilings of 18,900ft. So you can fly over any mountain in the USA even on a hot summer day. This 182 can cruise about 140 knots. That’s very good speed for a fixed gear with its payload. 84 gallon long range tanks with a range of over 1200 miles. Cessna 182 has very short takeoff and landing distances. Takeoff is only 625ft & landing is only 590ft. Operate on any runway or grass strip. Great backcountry plane. Higher useful load of 1075lbs, easily carry 4 adults. I can't think of any other plane that can do all of these very well. Continental O-470 carbureted 6 cylinder 230HP. Only 159 hours SMOH. Engine overhaul was a number of years ago so we did a borescope. All cylinders, walls, valves and pistons are in very good condition. Didn't find any corrosion. Very good compressions 72 72 73 72 70 76. Tanis engine heater to avoid damaging cold starts. Digital engine monitor is one of the most important things you can have in any plane and this has an advanced JPI to monitor all 6 cylinders unlike the single probe factory gauge. Easy to troubleshoot anomalies. Save a lot of fuel. New Sky-Tec starter. Starts right up. Flies great. (Please watch the video to see.) Garmin 660 touch screen. All the info you need. (We use portable ADS-B in. You can buy one from $250 up and have everything. GPS, live traffic, weather.) Built in battery - Garmin 3D Vision is a great backup for any instrument, vacuum or electrical issues. Digital radios, dual VOR. One glide slope. Marker beacon indicators. Cessna 182 is one of the best, most versatile planes you can own. Very stable, nice flying. Trim and fly hands free. I’ve landed 182s in 42 knot gusting winds no problem. It can do so many things very well that others can't. That's the reason Cessna 182 has so much demand. It’s hard to find a clean, low hour one with all records and clean history. Feel free to contact us with any questions. (Please make sure to watch the video. It has very good general info on Cessna 182.) 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
