1974 Cessna 182P Skylane

Overview
Exceptionally well-presented 1974 Cessna 182P Skylane that has benefited from extensive upgrades and refurbishment over the past several years. C-GVDD combines the proven performance and utility of the 182 with a modernized panel, upgraded autopilot, refreshed engine components, and a virtually new interior and exterior.

With only 3,473.1 hours total time, this aircraft has been well cared for, always hangared, and has complete logbooks dating back to new. Originally imported from the United States in 1975, the aircraft has spent its life primarily in central British Columbia and southern Alberta. The aircraft is represented as having no known damage history and no corrosion.

Powered by the proven Continental O-470-R, the engine currently has approximately 1,971.3 hours SMOH. In 2023, a complete top overhaul was carried out with six new Superior Millennium SA47006S-A21P cylinders installed, with approximately 275 hours since top overhaul.

The aircraft underwent a significant modernization beginning with a new instrument panel in 2022, including dual AV-30-C electronic flight instruments and an AeroCruze 100 digital autopilot. Garmin avionics, ADS-B In/Out capability, engine monitoring, fuel flow instrumentation, and satellite connectivity provide a capable and practical panel for cross-country flying.

Cosmetically, C-GVDD presents exceptionally well. In 2024, the aircraft received premium Sherwin-Williams paint, a completely renewed interior, new windows, exterior plastics and wingtips, seat rails, seat belts, and fuel bladders. Additional mechanical upgrades have included a new exhaust, alternator, tires, brakes, magnetos, and a newly installed VG kit.

C-GVDD represents an opportunity to acquire a low-time, extensively upgraded and exceptionally clean Cessna 182P without the time and expense associated with completing a similar restoration and modernization yourself.
