About the Cessna 182P

The Cessna 182P is the Continental O-470 era of the Skylane (1972-1976) — the variant buyers choose when they want classic 230-hp 182 capability without the fuel-injection and price premium of the later Lycoming-powered 182S/T. Simpler systems and steam-gauge panels keep it well below a modern Skylane on price, while useful load and a ~140-kt cruise stay close. The buy decision turns on age — most are 50-year-old airframes — so it hinges on O-470 cylinder and exhaust condition, corrosion, and how much avionics modernization you are willing to fund.

Produced 1972–1976.
