1983 Cessna 182R SkylaneSingle-Engine Piston Aircraft

This 1983 Cessna 182R Skylane (N5921E, serial 182-68338) represents one of the last Wichita-built models with 6,090 total hours on the airframe. The Continental O-470-U12 engine (serial 834418-R) shows strong compression readings of 77-79 across all cylinders and has 40 hours since its last factory rebuild, with an oil change performed at 25 hours. The aircraft features a comprehensive IFR panel including a Garmin 430W GPS/NAV/COM, GTX-335 transponder with ADS-B Out, and 3M WX-10A stormscope, all supported by dual ILS systems and a King KN-64 DME. The Cessna 300 autopilot couples to the 430W but lacks altitude hold capability.

The aircraft has received significant recent investments including a complete new Airtex interior with blue leather seats, headliner, door panels, and reconditioned trim, along with a new Concord battery and Rapco brake disks. Maintenance records show 24-month inspections were completed in April 2023, and the aircraft benefits from consistent hangar storage. With 625 hours remaining until engine TBO and useful avionics for IFR operations, this Skylane presents a well-maintained example with recent interior and panel upgrades.
