Description
This beautifully upgraded 1965 Cessna 182H combines the proven capability of the Skylane with a modern avionics package and significant performance upgrades. Powered by a Texas Skyways 285 HP Continental 550 conversion with just 295 hours since new, paired with a 3-blade Hartzell constant-speed propeller, this 182 offers the performance to match its classic character. The cockpit features a Garmin GTN 750Xi, GFC 500 autopilot, dual G5s, JPI engine monitor, and Smart Glide, providing modern capability and confidence for cross-country flying. With approximately six-year-old paint and interior, vortex generators, 4,500 hours total airframe time, and a March 2026 annual, N8515S is a well-equipped 182H ready for its next owner.
