Boy, do we have an excited episode planned for you! Today we are talking about the Cessna 182-series of aircraft—by far one of the most ubiquitous aircraft in the skies today. In fact, it is one of the most common aircraft we help our clients buy. The Cessna 182 is a simple, reliable, and safe aircraft easily accessible to pilots of all skill levels. It’s packed full of utility and performance with excellent parts support and a ton of upgrade options. The 182 has a lot of history, with its roots dating back to the mid-1940s and almost two dozen iterations. The Cessna 182 also fits a wide variety of mission profiles. However, despite its success, not all Cessna 182s are created equal. In just a moment, we’re going to take a deep dive into the history and specs of the Cessna 182 series, including model differences and performance specs. There’s so much here that I have to break this down into two parts. So, in part 2, which will air in February, we’ll get into ownership and maintenance costs, current pricing and inventory, and more to give you a complete Cessna 182 Buyer’s Guide.
