About the Cessna 182Q
The Cessna 182Q is the late-1970s to early-1980s (1978-1982) carbureted Continental O-470 Skylane — the value tier of the original run. Over a 182P or 182R the buy case is year, total time and panel/engine condition rather than performance, since all O-470 Skylanes load and cruise alike (~140 kt, four adults). A sensible pick for proven 230-hp utility at the lowest entry price, without fuel injection or glass.
Produced 1978–1982.
