The R182 and TR182 offer 10-15% improvement in climb and cruise speeds over their fixed-gear counterparts, or alternatively, 10-15% better fuel economy at the same speeds at the expense of increased maintenance costs and decreased gear robustness. Cessna gave the R182 the marketing name of "Skylane RG". For instance, the retractable version of the Cessna 172 was designated as the 172RG, whereas the retractable gear version of the Cessna 182 is the R182. The model designation nomenclature differs from some other Cessna models with optional retractable gear. The retractable gear R182 and TR182 were offered from 1978 to 1986, without and with engine turbocharging, respectively.
Its wing has the same planform as the smaller Cessna 172 and the larger 205/206 series however, some wing details, such as flap and aileron design, are the same as the 172 and are not like the 205/206 components.
The Cessna 182 is an all-metal (mostly aluminum alloy) aircraft, although some parts – such as engine cowling nosebowl and wingtips – are made of fiberglass or thermoplastic material. Ĭessna 182s were also built in Argentina by DINFIA (called A182), and by Reims Aviation, France, as the F182. The normally aspirated, avgas-fueled 182 went out of production in 2012, but came back in 2015. Cessna has no timeline for the JT-A and the diesel 172. īy mid-2013, Cessna planned to introduce the next model of the 182T, the JT-A, using the 227 hp (169 kW) SMA SR305-230 diesel engine running on Jet-A with a burn rate of 11 U.S. The "restart" aircraft built after 1996 were different in many other details including a different engine, new seating design, etc. As production continued, later models were improved regularly with features such as a wider fuselage, swept tailfin with rear "omni-vision" window, enlarged baggage compartment, higher gross weights, landing gear changes, etc. In 1957, the 182A variant was introduced along with the name Skylane. The Cessna 182 was introduced in 1956 as a tricycle gear variant of the 180. Introduced in 1956, the 182 has been produced in a number of variants, including a version with retractable landing gear, and is the second-most popular Cessna model still in production after the 172. It has the option of adding two child seats in the baggage area. The Cessna 182 Skylane is an American four-seat, single-engined light airplane built by Cessna of Wichita, Kansas.
