This 1976 Cessna 182P Skylane (C-GKYD) presents as a well-maintained example with 7,090 total airframe hours and a factory-remanufactured Continental IO-520D engine showing 1,882 hours since overhaul. The aircraft features a comprehensive avionics suite including a Garmin G3X touch with engine monitor, GTX 345 ADS-B in/out, GNS430W, and STEC50 autopilot, making it IFR-capable.
