1983 Cessna 182R SkylaneSingle-Engine Piston Aircraft

This 1983 Cessna 182R Skylane (N5438E) presents an exceptionally well-equipped IFR platform with remarkably low total time of just 1,960 hours since new. The Continental O-470U engine shows only 838 hours since major overhaul by Lynn's Aircraft Engines, with 2,200-hour TBO remaining. The aircraft's standout feature is its comprehensive Garmin panel upgrade, featuring a G500Txi 10-inch touchscreen PFD/MFD, GTN-650xi WAAS GPS with LPV capability, GFC-500 autopilot with fully coupled operation, and GTX-345 ADS-B transponder. The panel also includes a G5 backup instrument, GMA-345 audio panel, and angle of attack indicator with go-around switch functionality.

The airframe has been hangared and well-maintained, with its most recent annual inspection completed in July. The exterior features a white paint scheme with brown and orange accents, complemented by LED lighting throughout. Inside, the cabin offers four-place seating with light buckskin cloth upholstery, matching side panels, and light brown carpeting. The aircraft comes complete with wheel pants (though mains are not currently installed), USB ports, and all available logs. Based at KSUA in Stuart, Florida, this Skylane represents a turnkey solution for pilots seeking a modernized, low-time 182 with premium avionics.
