This 1975 Cessna A185F Skywagon (N1015F) presents as a well-equipped backcountry performer with 3,600 total airframe hours and a 425-hour SMOH IO-520D heavy case Continental engine paired with a 20-hour SNEW Hartzell Voyager three-blade propeller. The aircraft features comprehensive STOL enhancements including Robertson drooping ailerons, Sportsman cuff, vortex generators, and a Snyder speed kit, complemented by a float kit installation and long-range 84-gallon fuel capacity. The panel showcases modern Garmin avionics with dual G5 HSI/PFDs, GNX 375 IFR GPS, GFC 500 autopilot, and GMA 340 audio panel, making it IFR-capable.

The airframe shows a history of wing damage in 2009 with an excellent repair documented in complete logs, currently showing an 8/10 exterior rating with its custom four-tone blue accent scheme over white base. The interior scores 8.5/10 with six new leather seats, Selkirk side panels, and matching gray carpet. Notable features include factory corrosion proofing, lifting rings, extended baggage, and BAS safety equipment. With an annual due in August 2025 and 1,380 lbs useful load, this East Coast-based Skywagon combines backcountry capability with modern avionics.
