Cessna 182 Skylane History Following the invention of the Cessna 172 and 177 Cessna decided to continue the single engine four place aircraft but built an aircraft that exceed the performance and looks of it's predicessors. The looks were improved, the engine was bigger, 230 horses, giving the aircraft ramp appeal and versatility that any pilot would expire to. This was the first single engine aircraft that Cessna offered as a production aircraft with a IFR panel and leather seats making it a fast, comfortable and cost effect. The aircraft was also offer with a retractable landing gear designated the R182 and TR 182. The T 182 was a normally aspirated engine and the TR182 had a turbo charged engine giving the aircraft a better climb Rate, faster cruise speeds and extended range.

All in all this was still one of the best 4 seat aircraft, single engine aircraft offered at the time. Many pilots would agree with that statement. |
