Cessna 182 to 182R Skylane

This page covers the 182 through the 182R, which all have a Continental O-470 engine of 230 hp. Maximum weight rose from 2,550 pounds to 3,100 pounds and usable fuel is 55 to 60 gallons over the group, so the figures here are those of the 182Q. Two copies of its handbook give a 75 percent power cruise of 144 knots at 8,000 feet and a range of 520 nautical miles on the standard tanks, with a 45 minute reserve at 45 percent power, and a service ceiling of 16,500 feet. The T182, the 182S and 182T and the R182 have their own pages.
