This 1980 Cessna 180K (N2884K) represents one of the last K-models built and has been comprehensively upgraded while remaining in single-family ownership since new. The aircraft shows 4,092 total hours with a freshly overhauled O-470-U engine at 150 hours SMOH and a matching 150-hour prop SOH. The 2022 refurbishment included a complete Garmin glass panel with G3X Touch PFD/MFD, GTN 750Xi GPS, GFC 500 autopilot, and full ADS-B compliance, along with a new leather/sheepskin interior rated 10/10. The airframe benefits from a 1999 Imron paint job (Matterhorn White with blue trim) maintained in 9/10 condition, hangared since new with Permagard protection.

Originally configured for floats and professionally maintained by a Cessna dealer, this 180K has operated on wheels for 26 years with a Horton STOL kit, Kenmore gross weight increase to 3,190 lbs, and 84-gallon wet wings. Notable features include Cies digital fuel probes, complete vacuum system removal, LED lighting upgrades, and extensive soundproofing. The aircraft carries a clean damage history, complete logs, and comes with current certifications through June 2026 (annual) and October 2026 (transponder/static checks). With its 1,374 lb useful load and IFR capability, it's been used for efficient family transportation throughout the western U.S.
