About the 182S

The Cessna 182S is a fixed-wing, single-engine aircraft designed in the USA. Featuring a high-wing layout with a spacious cabin accommodating four seats, it suits private owners, flight schools, and utility operators looking for a reliable cross-country tourer and backcountry platform.

First flown in the 1950s as a development of the Cessna 180, the type introduced a stable tricycle landing gear configuration and later gained a wider fuselage and updated tail surfaces. Over decades of production, the airframe has evolved through numerous variants featuring different engine options, carburetted and fuel-injected systems, retractable landing gear, and turbocharging for high-altitude operations.

The 182S is a variant of the Cessna 182. Other variants: 182A, 182B, 182C, 182D, 182E, 182F, 182G, 182H, 182J, 182K, 182L, 182M, 182N, 182P, 182Q, 182R, 182RG, 182T.
