Introduction
This report is prepared in accordance with the Aircraft Bluebook (www.aircraftbluebook.com) a global
aircraft value authority, since 1952 and National Aircraft Appraiser guidelines. Aircraft are Fair Market
Valued (FMV) by industry comparison of available serial numbers (SNs) of the same type and year.
AD (Airworthiness Directives), flight hours and maintenance performed on the subject aircraft are
verified by aircraft mechanics familiar with the SN and certified with FAA Inspection Authorization.
Survey Aircraft
The Cessna 182 Skylane® is an American four-seat, light airplane built by Cessna Aircraft of Wichita,
Kansas. It has the option of adding two (2) child seats, installed in the baggage area. Introduced in
1956, the 182 has been produced in a number of variants, including a version with retractable landing
gear and is the second most popular Cessna® model, after the 172.
The Cessna 182 is an all-metal (mostly aluminum alloy) aircraft, although some parts – such as engine
cowling nose bowl and wingtips – are made of fiberglass or thermoplastic material. Its wing has the
same planform as the smaller Cessna 172 and the larger 205/206 series; however, some wing details
such as flap and aileron design are the same as the 172 and are not like the 205/206 components.
The 182Q Skylane is powered by a 230-hp (172 kW) Continental O-470-U piston engine, gross weight
2,950-lb (1,338-kg) and “the Q-model” was FAA certified on 28 July 1976. Cessna’s website lists 22,336
Skylanes delivered up to 2007, plus 901 Turbo Skylanes delivered up to 2007. [6]
