This 1999 Cessna 182S Skylane (N8439L) presents a well-maintained example with 2,416.8 total airframe hours and a factory-overhauled Lycoming IO-540-AB1A5 engine showing 1,482.8 hours since its April 2004 overhaul. The aircraft features IFR certification with a capable avionics suite including dual King KX-155A nav/coms, a King KLN-94 GPS, KAP 140 autopilot, and Appareo Stratus ADS-B In/Out system. Recent maintenance includes a June 2024 annual inspection with strong cylinder compressions (76-78 psi across all cylinders), and the FAR 91.411/413 certifications remain valid through June 2026.

The airframe shows good original condition with minor paint chips on strut leading edges and light fading of striping, but no evidence of hail damage or corrosion. The 1999-original interior remains structurally sound with minor age-related cracking only on the pilot's seat, while rear seats show excellent condition. With a useful load of 1,140.9 lbs and 88-gallon fuel capacity, this Skylane offers practical utility. Complete and detailed logbooks document the aircraft's history since new, including over 1,000 hours flown by the previous owner who maintained it until upgrading to a multi-engine aircraft. The clean damage history and recent annual make this a turnkey IFR platform ready for its next owner.
