    Description
    This exceptionally well-equipped 1978 Cessna R182 Skylane RG combines the versatility of the retractable Skylane with a host of premium upgrades, making it a standout touring and IFR aircraft.

Powered by the desirable Air Plains 260HP fuel-injected engine conversion with just 136 hours since overhaul, this aircraft also features a three-blade propeller, Garmin GFC 500 digital autopilot, dual Garmin G5s, Garmin GNC 355 WAAS GPS/COM, GTR 225 COM and Lynx NGT-9000 ADS-B In/Out transponder. The vacuum system has been removed, while a wet wing conversion eliminates the original fuel bladders for improved long-term ownership.

With 5,877 hours total airframe time, a very extensive recent annual inspection and an excellent avionics suite, this is an outstanding opportunity to acquire one of the best-equipped R182s on the market.
